The mission of Phi Theta Kappa is to recognize academic excellence and provide academic and leadership development opportunities for our members–all members. Phi Theta Kappa believes that Black Lives Matter in our classrooms, on our campuses, in our communities, and in our country, and that equitable access to–and success in–higher education has a critical role to play in combating racism and injustice.
Phi Theta Kappa membership empowers students by developing leadership, critical thinking and organizational skills sought by prospective colleges and employers. The national Phi Theta Kappa society currently has over 1.2 million members on 1,300 campuses around the world.
The PTK Chapter at NHCC is Phi Xi. Phi Xi is 50+ years old. Phi Xi has a long and proud tradition on Scholarship, Service, Leadership and Fellowship. Last year students presented the results of their research on, “Factors impacting GPA of Students” at the faculty development days. Students also developed an ongoing fundraiser for the foodshelf with a Cookbook comprised of recipes from students, faculty and staff at NHCC.
