Student Organizations
Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society
Phi Theta Kappa is an international honor society specifically for community college students. At OCCCC the clubs work on service and community projects in tandem. PTK students are asked to support the work of the other groups at the school.
In addition to social and service projects, this organization makes over $90 million of scholarship money available each year; much of which is limited to members. During fall term, scholarships are opened for those planning to transfer to a four-year college or university in the following fall term.
Each spring, a similar application is opened for students who will be returning to a community college in the following fall. An invitation to join the honor society will be emailed to eligible students at the start of each term.
