Patrick & Henry Community College celebrated the induction of 101 Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) members to the college’s Psi Phi Chapter on Wednesday, April 24 at its fifty-second annual event.
Following opening remarks by P&HCC President Dr. Greg Hodges, advisors Bronte Miller and LaDonna Varner touted the accomplishments of the honorees and encouraged them to explore the scholarship opportunities PTK will afford them when they transfer to four-year universities. Vice President Candice Lockard and member Alan Rodrigues Rosas were also recognized for their PTK All-Virginia Academic Team honor.
PTK is an international college honor society for students in two-year colleges. The organization focuses on recognizing and encouraging the academic achievement of college students while providing opportunities for individual growth and development through participation in honors, leadership, service, and fellowship programming. For more than 100 years, Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society has helped millions of high-achieving college students reach their full potential. The organization makes it easy to research and apply for valuable scholarships that help reduce the cost of college.
P&HCC’S PTK officers are Maeve McCulloch, president; Candice Lockard, vice president; and Samantha Harris, recording & media officer.
