Phi Theta Kappa's 2008-2010 Honors Study Topic:
The Paradox of Affluence: Choices, Challenges, and Consequences
The Honors Study Topic brings important, current issues to the fore and encourages Phi Theta Kappa members to examine how these issues affect their lives. The topic selected biennially by the Honors Committee, is utilized and explored through programs such as the annual International Honors Institute, the Honors Seminar Series, and the Honors Case Study Challenge. The Honors Program Guide is an invaluable tool for your Honors Study Topic explorations.
Since the concept of using the Honors Study Topic for campus forums began in 1968, the topic has been selected to meet the needs of our two-year institutions and their diverse communities. It is always timely, international in scope, issue-oriented, appropriate for interdisciplinary study, and amenable to study on even small college campuses with limited library and research facilities.
