A crowd of graduates at commencement

Phi Theta Kappa

PTK has been busy getting ready for the upcoming induction on May 8, where almost 200 new students will be inducted. The new officer team will be getting ready to come on board after induction, where they will focus on getting QCC's chapter to five-star status through the rigorous completion of the Honors in Action Project.

Last week, PTK members volunteered for Accepted Students Day, as well as a Polar Park event hosted by Admissions. The students have also been busy raising funds for the PTK scholarship fund, which includes an upcoming Ernie’s Car Wash fundraiser.
