...Community Colleges are all over the nation. We know this and see this as Phi Theta Kappans in Michigan. We experience this first hand and learn from this and become successful because of them. President Barack Obama has set forth an ambitious agenda for U.S. postsecondary education: by 2020, he would like to once again have the highest proportion of college graduates in the world. This is an amazing and ambitious goal but it will take the help of us as Phi Theta Kappans to reach this. In April 2010, the American Association of Community Colleges and five other community college organizations responded by reaffirming their commitment to completion while maintaining their commitment to increasing access and quality by issuing a joint statement, Democracy's Colleges: Call to Action. The partnering organizations were the Association of Community College Trustees, the Center for Community College Student Engagement, the League for Innovation in the Community College, the National Organization for Staff and Organizational Development, and the organization that we are all involved in Phi Theta Kappa. With this commitment to completion articulated, Re-balancing the Mission: The Community College Completion Challenge addresses what it means for community colleges to embrace completion in the same way that they have historically embraced access. Because community colleges are, first and foremost, oriented toward their communities, they may need to modify their traditional ways of fulfilling...

...At a young age, I lost my mother, who was about to finish college, due to cancer. Knowing that my mother’s dream is for all of her children to finish college, something inside of me made me value academics more. After graduating from high school in the Philippines, we moved to the United States of America in 2013. When I started community college, the tuition and expenses stunned me. I always wanted to earn a baccalaureate degree, but I had the idea that I will never be able to attend a four-year college or university much less go to dental school because of our financial situation. Despite what I’ve thought, I was still persistent to make the most of my community college years. I joined Phi Theta Kappa, and it completely changed my life. I...

...Scholarship Committee: If anyone asked me at six, “What do you want to be when you grow up?”, I would have responded quite simply: a doctor. The earliest memories I can recall were me ‘fixing’ my stuffed animals and healing the neighborhood kids of ailments from scraped knees to ‘I-hate-broccoli syndrome.’ But, at 12, my world turned upside down and my parents divorced. My dreams of becoming a doctor seemed to slip away. I began working at the young age of 14, then moved on to full-time hours at 16. At 19, I attempted to join the U.S. Army to aid with school. Well, life has an amusing way of working itself out, and that is when I discovered I was pregnant. Fast-forward to 10 years later, and I am now starting the journey I never began. This...

...While attending Lake Sumter State College the past few years have flow by. I not only achieved my set academic goals, I have also learned life lessons. I strived for the best and have a high GPA, with only one more semester of classes left until I graduate. Most students in community college take one or two classes at a time. I have always been a full time student while working two part time jobs, and doing extracurricular activities. My extracurricular activities include, being a chapter officer for Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society where I have gone on officer field trips, run programs for the group, volunteered on many occasions, and attended the weekly meetings. I also this year became the Vice- president of the Humanities Preservation Society. In this club, I went on numerous field trips, attended on campus activities, and volunteer and attended weekly meetings. Since the beginning of high school I have taught children’s Sunday school every week at my church, using two to three hours of my time spreading the word of God to the youth of my area. Teaching and mentoring these children, I have watched most of them grow up from babies to being in the early years of elementary school. I also volunteer on regular basis. I have volunteered at the public library since my first year of high school with the children’s librarian. I also work with children, setting up activities, helping out during holiday festivals, shelving book materials, and assisting patrons in any way that I can...

...Their household is a five-member household. It is Ms. Melesa, her two sons, and her two grandchildren that she has taken into the home. She was the only source of income for the home. So now the burdens of paying bills, buying food, and taking care of her are being placed on a classmate of mine. The classmate is Hunter Holley; he is an exceptional person and student. He is one of ten students nationwide selected for the Person Scholarship for Higher Education.

...Content A fraternity (Latin frater : "brother") is a brotherhood, although the term sometimes connotes a distinct or formal organization and sometimes a secret society. A fraternity (or fraternal organization) is an organized society of men associated together in an environment of companionship and brotherhood; dedicated to the intellectual, physical, and social development of its members. History There are known fraternal organizations which existed as far back as ancient Greece and in the Mithraic Mysteries of ancient Rome. Analogous institutions developed in the late medieval period called confraternities, which were lay organizations allied to the Catholic Church. Some were groups of men and women who were endeavoring to ally themselves more closely with the prayer and activity of the Church; Others were groups of tradesmen, which are more commonly referred to as guilds. These later confraternities evolved into purely secular fraternal societies, while the ones with religious goals continue to be the format of the modern Third Orders affiliated with the mendicant orders. The development of modern fraternal orders was especially dynamic in the United States, where the freedom to associate outside governmental regulation is expressly sanctioned in law. There have been hundreds of fraternal organizations in the United States, and at the beginning of the 20th century the number of memberships equaled the number of adult males. (Due to multiple memberships, probably only 50%...

...girl is required to perform at least 10 hours of service every year. This means the women of delta gamma perform over 2,000 collective hours of service per year. By giving back, the women become more involved on the community as well as on campus. It is very important to be viewed as leaders on campus because it positively reflects the Delta Gamma name. We are currently holding 130 years of DG in Nebraska and for 130 years, these women kept the name strong. I walked in and thought “woah I totally do not love it here and will never be a Delta Gamma.” Once again, I was wrong. A book cannot simply be judged by its cover. The Delta Gamma house comes to life because the sorority women are so passionate about their philanthropy. The Kappa Chapter fundraises all year for the foundation known as Service for sight, which is also a foundation that was started because the Delta Gamma women were so passionate about helping the...
