I had never considered joining an organization like this but after some research I think this could certainly benefit my future both professionally and personally. Phi Theta Kappa’s mission is…

I was inducted in Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) in the Fall of 2015. Ever since then, I have been not only a member, but an active member. Learning, experience and leadership are good experiences that I have gained as an active member of PTK.
