Clinton Community College Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society held an induction ceremony for new members on March 4. Forty eight members were inducted into the CCC Alpha Theta Beta Chapter. Students are invited to join Phi Theta Kappa if they have achieved a 3.5 grade point and earned 12 credit hours.
Alpha Theta Beta chapter President Mackenzie Jackley and alumni Amanda Ganzer served as the Masters of Ceremony. CCC President Brian Kelly recognized the academic accomplishments of the students who have earned the opportunity to join Phi Theta Kappa. Associate Director of Business Services Justin Sampson assisted in the induction ceremony. Sampson was recognized as Distinguished College Administrator at the 2024 international Catalyst conference. CCC Interim Dean of Enrollment Services Tishly Herrington served as guest speaker. The Alpha Theta Beta Chapter Advisors Gina Bielski, Heather Evans, and Shirley Turnis commented, “We welcome these new members and look forward to working with them in our Phi Theta Kappa Chapter.”
In recent years the Alpha Theta Beta chapter has been awarded 5-Start Chapter status and named a REACH chapter for their growth in membership. The chapter has completed several projects including collecting alumni memories, a little lending library, sending more than 1,000 holiday cards to our military troops, handing out stress relief bags to students and faculty during finals, and upkeep with the pollinator garden. CCC President Dr. Brian Kelly stated, “I am proud of these students and their commitment to service learning and the community. We had an outstanding group this year.”
Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society is the largest honor society in American higher education with more than 1,200 chapters on two-year and community college campuses in all 50 of the United States, Canada, Germany, and Japan. Scholarships totaling more than $36 million are offered annually to Phi Theta Kappa students.
