On Oct. 23rd, a select few of DCTC students were inducted into the Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) Honor Society. Phi Theta Kappa is recognized as the official honor society for community colleges by the American Association of Community Colleges. PTK provides many leadership and civic engagement opportunities for students. To be eligible for membership, students must have completed a minimum of 12 hours of coursework at DCTC with a cumulative GPA of 3.5. Invitations to join the society are mailed to eligible students at the end of each term. Phi Theta Kappa’s name features the initials for the Greek words phronimon for “wisdom,” thumos for “purity,” and katharotes for “aspiration.” Click to learn more about DCTC’s PTK.

Two Early Childhood and Youth Development students were inducted: Mackenzie Rayman and Elisabeth Oviedo. CONGRATS LADIES! You have worked hard for this academic honor! Students had an opportunity to identify and honor an instructor that has been influential in their academic success. Mackenzie and Elisabeth honored Dawn Braa and Elisabeth also honored Cory Woosley with the Golden Apple Award. Thank you! We are very appreciative of such an award. Below are some pictures of the special event.
