Phi Theta Kappa Spring Induction Ceremony
Held at Madison Area Technical College
Seventy-one students from all five campuses were inducted into
Madison Area Technical College’s (MATC) chapter of Phi Theta
Kappa during the college’s 2006 spring induction ceremony
on February 13, 2006.
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 1,575 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 offers associate degrees, vocational
diplomas and certificates, and non-degree courses in more than 140 programs of
study. The college serves all or parts of 12 counties located in southcentral
Wisconsin and offers instruction through five campuses and numerous community
locations throughout the district.
