Phi Theta Kappa (PTK), the international honor society for high-achieving students at associate-degree-granting institutions, is proud to welcome Reid State Technical College as its newest chapter. The college, which recently achieved accreditation, celebrated this milestone with its inaugural induction ceremony on March 3, 2025, recognizing students for their academic excellence and leadership potential.
Reid State’s new PTK chapter represents a commitment to student achievement, leadership, and service, and it marks an important step in the college’s growth. The induction ceremony, attended by students, faculty, and community leaders, signified the beginning of a new tradition of academic excellence and service on campus.
“We are thrilled to welcome Reid State Technical College to the Phi Theta Kappa family,” said Dr. Lynn Tincher-Ladner, President and CEO of Phi Theta Kappa. “This chapter will provide students with unparalleled opportunities for leadership development, scholarships, and service—ensuring that high-achieving students at Reid State are recognized and supported in their academic journeys.”
With this induction, Reid State joins nearly 1,250 college campuses worldwide that offer PTK membership, opening doors to exclusive scholarships, professional development, and networking opportunities for its students. The new chapter is eager to make a lasting impact on both the campus and the surrounding community through service initiatives and student-led projects.
As the chapter grows, faculty and student leaders plan to engage in programs that enhance student success, increase community involvement, and promote career readiness. Reid State’s PTK chapter will serve as a platform for students to develop leadership skills, connect with like-minded peers, and gain recognition for their academic achievements.
