Congratulations to Guttman’s New PTK Members

I was humbled and honored to be the keynote speaker at the PTK Honor Society Induction Ceremony for these hardworking, academically excellent new student members at Guttman Community College CUNY in New York City today.

A Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society International induction isn’t just ceremonial in recognizing the highest academic achievers at community colleges. It offers competitive scholarships, need-based scholarships, and university partner transfer scholarships, as well as opportunities for alums to continue to grow as scholars and leaders, supporting their continued academic and professional success.

Go, Guttman!

I’m honored have been invited to speak at two upcoming events at Guttman Community College CUNY hosted by the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society International. I spoke at Guttman recently as a Legacy Ambassador for The Fulbright Program about my experiences as a Fulbright-Nehru Research Scholar to India, and stressed that I also proudly began my higher education journey with my freshman year at Virginia Western Community College where I was a Dean’s List and Honor Roll student before transferring to NYU Tisch School of the Arts for my BFA and MFA.

This first event is a panel discussion of community college alums. For the second event, I’ll be the keynote speaker at the Honors Society Induction Ceremony welcoming new members into Phi Theta Kappa.
