Phi Theta Kappa Voices
Phi Theta Kappa constituents give personal voices to hot topics.
Tootsie Sommers
2004-05 Chapter President, Lakeshore Technical College
Cleveland, Wisconsin
On Project Graduation:
"Individuals are shocked to learn that illiteracy and hunger exist in
our communities, but upon realizing this fact, people are extremely
eager to help in any way they can. Something our chapter has
learned from participating in Project Graduation is that service to
our community is very rewarding. The fellowship among our chapter
members is truly heartfelt, as compassion for others does not have
barriers. Everyone benefits from community service - it's a gift from
our hearts that continues to grow by giving of ourselves."
Nathan Rogers
2004-05 Tennessee Regional President
Northeast State Technical Community College
Blountville, Tennessee
On the International Leadership Conference:
"Being at the International Leadership Conference for
Regional Officers can be a life changing event.
Not only do you learn about the history of Phi Theta Kappa,
but through the leadership training you are given the
chance to create history."
Joyce McAdams
Chapter President, Ivy Tech State College
Sellersburg, Indiana
On Relay For Life:
"Having dealt with my father's passing from cancer 20 years
ago, I have always believed in giving to cancer research.
Participation in the Relay For Life fundraiser has provided me
the opportunity to work with so many other students, faculty
and staff committed to giving not only their money but also,
more importantly, their time to such an important cause."
Kunti Dudakia
Membership Officer, Irvine Valley College
Irvine, California
On the Satellite Seminars:
"By facilitating discussions and composing thought-provoking
questionnaires and surveys, I was able to fully grasp our
Honors Study Topic. Popular Culture is an unquestionable
influence on all our lives and this series helped our chapter
re-examine our own views about sex, marriage, sports and
music. Scholarship is about sharing and learning, and the
Satellite Seminar Series managed to bring our students,
faculty and administration together in a scholarly forum for
intellectual exchange and discussion."
