South Georgia State College’s two chapters of the Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) Honor Society received multiple awards at Georgia’s Spring Regional Conference and PTK’s Catalyst Conference recently. The two chapters recognized were Kappa Sigma and Alpha Rho Omega.

Both chapters were awarded five-star status by using a plan which organizes requirements into five themed categories or “stars” including reach, engage, network, lead and discover. Requirements are completed during each calendar year (January 1 — December 31). The five-star plan is a way to engage chapters in PTK programs and celebrate accomplishments.

Kappa Sigma’s awards at the regional level included a Distinguished Theme Honors in Action Award for Theme 4 – Preserving Stories, a first runner-up award for College Project, and first runner-up in the Top Chapters category. Emma Wilkerson, chapter president, received second runner-up as Distinguished Chapter Officer.
