LCC Phi Theta Kappa holds spring induction

Lamar Community College’s Beta Eta Gamma chapter of the Phi Theta Kappa honor society inducted 30 new members during the spring induction ceremony held this month.

After a welcome from Chapter President Tacy Schmidt, Dr. Reyes was the guest speaker. 

Dr. Reyes shared a message about the power of inspiration, speaking of her own story of the moment when a conversation with her brother inspired her to see herself as capable of achieving her goals, and reminded students that every achievement in life begins by accepting an invitation to step into a new challenge. 

The hallmarks of Phi Theta Kappa, scholarship, leadership, fellowship, and service, all are rooted in one’s level of inspiration to be excellent every day, whatever one is doing, and committing to leaving behind a legacy of serving and inspiring others.  

Phi Theta Kappa is an international scholastic honor society to recognize and encourage scholarship among two-year college students. The Beta Eta Gamma Chapter of Phi Theta Kappa promotes academic excellence at LCC and is active on campus. Membership is by invitation, based on the student’s overall GPA and level of credits completed. Induction of new members occurs every fall and spring semester.
