To be invited to become a member of the Phi Theta Kappa International Honor Society, the student must complete 12 credit hours with a minimum 3.5 GPA.  Being a member of Phi Theta Kappa is a lifetime honor that recognizes a student’s hard work, dedication and perseverance.

In addition to the new members, Sunshine Boylan and Robert Lowndes were made official officers of the group.

Mark Retersdorf gave a compelling presentation on the aspects of life that are important including  networking, setting goals, and being aware of the “mountains” that must be climbed.
