NPCC students join Phi Theta Kappa

More than 30 students were inducted into the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society at North Platte Community College Sunday. 

PTK is the world's largest and most prestigious honor society for two-year college students, and NPCC is home to the Alpha Beta Theta chapter. 

Students are invited to join based on their grade point average. To be considered, they must complete a minimum of 12 credit hours at NPCC and have a GPA of at least 3.5. They also must maintain a GPA of 3.25 to remain a PTK member. 

This year's ceremony included two years' worth of inductees as the ceremony for last year had to be cancelled due to COVID. All were presented with gold stoles to wear at commencement May 7.
