Edison State Students
Inducted to PTK Honor Society
Twenty-three new members were inducted into the Edison State Community
College Chapter of Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) during a ceremony on Tuesday,
April 24 at the Piqua campus. Each semester, students are invited to
join the honor society based on academic criteria.
The Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society was established in 1918 to recognize
and encourage the academic achievement of two-year college students and
provide opportunities for individual growth and development through
honors, leadership, and service programming.
New inductees include: Caitlin Ball, Ashley Belisle, Larry Broughton,
Rayna Brownlee, Robert Christman, Christina Cook, Trey Cotrell, Maranda
Dunlap, Kyle Flaute, David Fries, Jennifer Hoelscher, Amber Keith,
Rosemary Martin, Grace McCalister, Danielle Nelson, Tabitha Neth,
Jeffrey Overholser, Lillian Quesenberry, Kaytlyn Riffell, Amber Schoen,
Kayla Seman, Janel Stegall, and Brandon White.
In his statement to the candidates, Edison State Provost Chris Spradlin
talked about how PTK represents excellence. “Edison State has some
truly excellent students, and it is an honor to recognize them each
semester.”
The inductees gave thanks to those who have made a difference in their
education, including Edison State instructors Vivian Blevins, Brad
Lentz, and Tom Martinez.
Each semester, the Student Leadership Committee selects a member of the
Edison State faculty or staff to honor during the ceremony. This
semester, Harold Hitchcock Maintenance Supervisor was commended for
providing outstanding service to the chapter.
Recognized by the American Association of Community Colleges as the
official honor society for two-year colleges, Phi Theta Kappa is the
largest honor society in American higher education with more than 2.5
million members and 1,275 chapters.
