Phi Theta Kappa Spring Induction Ceremony Held
at Madison Area Technical College
Sixty-one students from all five campuses were inducted into Madison
Area Technical College’s (MATC) chapter of Phi Theta Kappa
during the college’s 2005 spring induction ceremony on
February 16, 2005.
Phi Theta Kappa, with more than 1,100 chapters
worldwide, is an international honor society that has been
recognizing academic
achievement in two-year colleges
since 1918. The society is dedicated to advancing four hallmarks: scholarship,
service, fellowship and leadership. To be eligible for membership, students
need a minimum of 12 associate degree credits and a cumulative
grade point average
of at least 3.75 on a 4.0 scale.
Beta Beta Psi began in the fall semester of
1995 and quickly became one of the most active chapters in the
state.
The chapter has received 5-star status
(the
highest ranking) for implementing programs of service, scholarship, fellowship
and leadership in the community. With this spring’s induction, Beta
Beta Psi will have recognized the academic achievement of over 800 MATC students.
MATC
is one of the largest of the Wisconsin Technical College System’s
16 colleges.
It provides a comprehensive curriculum of technical, liberal arts and
science, adult basic education and life enrichment studies and activities,
as well as
customized employee training. MATC provides training in more than 100
career programs. It awards associate degrees, vocational diplomas and
certificates,
and offers non-degree courses. The college serves all or parts of 12
counties located in south-central Wisconsin and offers instruction through
five campuses
and various other locations throughout the district. ###
