More than 90 West Kentucky Community and Technical College students were recently named to the college’s Phi Theta Kappa honor society.
Phi Theta Kappa recognizes and encourages scholarship among two-year college students. To achieve this purpose, Phi Theta Kappa provides opportunities for the development of leadership and service, for an intellectual climate for exchange of ideas and ideals, for lively fellowship for scholars, and for stimulation of interest in continuing academic excellence.
Dr. Kevin Gericke, a WKCTC Phi Theta Kappa advisor, said PTK campus activities include participation in the Community College Completion Corps, study of the Phi Theta Kappa Honors Study Topic, and numerous community service projects. In addition to Gericke, WKCTC staff who are also PTK members include Samuel Evens, Nancy Robbins, Summer Holland, and Kenda Shaffer. Phi Theta Kappa graduates are identified during WKCTC’s graduation ceremonies by wearing the gold honors stole regalia.
Phi Theta Kappa was recognized in 1929 by the American Association of Junior Colleges as the official honor society for two-year colleges. There are approximately 134,000 students inducted annually in the 1285 chapters on college campuses in both the United States and other countries.
