Middlesex Community College recently recognized 53 students, with GPAs of 3.7 or higher, by inducting them into Phi Theta Kappa (PTK), the national honor society for two-year colleges.
Recognized during the PTK Induction Ceremony on the Bedford campus, the new honor society members were greeted by MCC President James C. Mabry; Philip J. Sisson, Provost and Vice President of Academic and Student Affairs; David Kalivas, History Professor and Director of MCC’s Commonwealth Honors Program; and Steven Rossi, PTK Advisor and Director of Leadership Development and Student Activities.
“Many members of PTK work full-time in addition to taking classes full-time. Earning a 3.7 GPA is no easy feat,” said Rossi. “The PTK Induction Ceremony is a great way to recognize the academic and individual achievements of these exceptional students.”
Leading the induction of new members were PTK President Genesis Martinez, Vice President George Hunter Ashley, Treasurer Nicholas Mozzicato, and Secretary Amber Namery.
During the ceremony, students listened to a speech by MCC Alumna Diana Santana. Students were called on stage individually to receive their PTK certificate from President Mabry. As a group, the members recited the PTK Initiation Pledge. A reception with friends and family followed the ceremony.
