Fall 2013

Welcome Smarties !

On behalf of PTK President, Rocio Flores, I'd like to welcome everyone back to school.  This is going to be an exciting and great semester with lots of fun activities for all us scholars.  We are excited to announce that Dr. Muller is back as Director of Ralph Bunche & Phi Theta Kappa so please stop by our office (AD 205/C) to say hi.  Please refer to this blogspot for activites, events, meetings, and updates of campus programs and PTK.  LACC Club Preview Day is Tuesday August 27 from 12-2pm on the Main Quad. So as Gilbert used to say, "tell everyone and bring a friend!" 


Cheers,

Judith Sorto / Vice President Phi Theta Kappa

No Meeting Wed 27 March 2011

Smarties:

I hope everyone is hanging in there this week before Spring Break.  I haven't heard back from several of the Officers and the few I have heard from have some very heavy things going on.  I'm assuming that everyone is gearing up for midterms and rushing about putting the finishing touches on their scholarship applications.  Since the applications are due this Wed and the Student Union will be CrAzy BuSy, I think it's best if we resume our meetings when we return from the holiday.  When we get back we have to plan our PTK Elections and Induction Ceremony.  The school year will be over before we know it so let's all try and do our part to give next year's PTK/Honors Club a good head start.  

Gilbert 

Regrettably our meeting for tomorrow 13 March is cancelled.  We will resume our meetings in two weeks on the 27th.

PTK / Honors Club Meeting

LACC Student Union 2^nd floor Conference Room

Bring a friend & tell EVERYONE !!! 

Hi all!

 

DON’T miss next Wednesday’s Honors Club meeting!!!!!
March 13, 3pm, 2nd Floor Conference room in the Student Union Building.

 

It’s your one-stop-shop for Foundation scholarship information.

 

The presentation will include: Information on all scholarships, tips for writing your essay, scholarship application forms, and a representativefrom the Foundation who will be available to answer all your questions.

 

The due date for all LACC Foundation Scholarships is March 27.

That’s less than three weeks to get your applications in.

Make the most of this great opportunity. Not only will a scholarship provide you with some much needed financial assistance, but it will look impressive on your future college applications.

After the information session we will be running a trivia quiz about the Honors Program namesake – Dr. Ralph Bunche.

Do some quick reading about the life and achievements of Dr. Bunche and win a great prize in the trivia competition!

 

We look forward to seeing you there.

All are welcome, so please bring a friend.

THIS EVENT IS OPEN TO THE CAMPUS

Hola Smarties !

I hope everyone is geared-up for spring semester.  As you know it's LACC Foundation Scholarship Season.  Most all of the scholarships can be downloaded from the college website.  DON'T forget to get your applications in for Bookstore Vouchers ASAP!  I have a ton with me so if you see me rolling around campus please stop...say hi... hit me up for an application. Gail Scanlan, Associate Executive Director of the LACC Scholarship Foundation, has asked us Kappans & RBS'ers to help out over the next few months.  The Foundation is looking for volunteers to man tables around campus in two hour shifts from Mon-Thur 10:00-16:00.  The locations are: Main Quad, outside of the MLK Library, in front of Tully's, and inside the Student Union.  Basically... one or two student volunteers would sit for a few hours with all of the scholarship applications, chat up passing students, and direct them to the Foundation for $$$$$$$ !  

The best part about this volunteer opportunity is that you'll get face-time with the staff at the Foundation (so they will be able to put faces to all of those applications they sort through).  Also...it will give you the opportunity to have a better understanding of the application process AND make inquiries about selection committees.  Ms. Scanlan has agreed to issue letters verifying service hours to those RBS'ers who are looking for volunteer opportunities!  If you're interested please email me directly :  gilbertschool@icloud.com 

Our First PTK/Honors Club Meeting will be next week, Wed 13 Feb @ 3pm in the Student Union (room assignment to follow).  Please bring a friend and TELL EVERYONE! Check out our blog because it's quite likely that your face is on the home page OR... the slide show of photos that Fiona uploaded TODAY... as in just moments ago !  It's really pretty terrific and we should all be sure to thank Fi in person for a JOB WELL DONE.  

SPRING 2013 - First meeting

Hola Smarties ! 

The Honors Club hopes that everyone had a wonderful holiday vacation.
Next week it's back to the grind...Yippie ! 

The tentative meeting schedule for the semester will be every other Wed from 3-4 beginning on 13 Feb. If this time doesn't work for you PLEASE reply to this post ASAP.

We have lots of great events and service projects planned this semester and keep in mind that we'll try to get most everything wrapped up by midterms...ish. VERY IMORTANT !!! The Honors Club needs LACC Business Office fee receipts showing that you've paid your $7 ASG fee from EVERYONE.

Ken Woolston (VP) and Gilbert Aguilar (President) will need those before our fist meeting in order to re-charter our club. Please just slip them under the door of Professor Colombo's AD 205 office (a.k.a. Dr. Muller's office) with a with a post-it-note that reads, "PTK." Please don't forget to extend invitations to your friends and classmates to join us for a GREAT SEMESTER full of fun and good work
