The Alpha Lambda Mu chapter at Haywood Community College has had a very busy semester. We have hosted an Advisor Training, sent a member and advisor to Regional Leadership Conference, and worked hard on campus. We have helped the Environmental Club with the Annual Creepy Critter Night, which teaches children that certain critters are not so creepy after all. We served drinks at the 5th Annual Kickball Tournament at HCC. We are also collecting dry dog and cat food for Clyde’s Cupboard, the campus food pantry.

Alpha Psi Upsilon Chapter at Stanly Community College held a Spring Social for all students. While Spring Fling and Fall Fest are held campus-wide each year, some students are unable to attend due to work, clinicals, etc., so this event was planned for the evening. To promote the event, flyers were placed in all buildings and also posted on Canvas.
Back to the 80s! was a great theme. PTK officers made a Spotify account with an ’80s playlist. This allowed everyone to make requests and add songs.
Everyone in attendance participated in music trivia with donated prizes for the winning team, and consolation prizes were given to all participants!
This was truly a social event as attendees enjoyed tabletop games, danced, and used an '80's groovy backdrop to take pictures with friends while enjoying snacks.

107 New Phi Theta Kappa Members Join the Beta Alpha Zeta Chapter for Fall 2025
On November 5, 2025, Wake Tech Community College hosted its Fall 2025 induction ceremony to welcome 107 new members into the Beta Alpha Zeta chapter of Phi Theta Kappa (PTK), the international honor society for two-year colleges. The event was held on the Southern Wake Campus and featured special guest Jacob Wisor, President of the Carolina Region of Phi Theta Kappa.
In his remarks, Wisor encouraged inductees to “shift your focus from what you get to what you give,” emphasizing the importance of meaningful service and intentional action. He reminded students that when they pursue their goals with authenticity and purpose—rather than a focus on immediate rewards—their passion will ultimately shine through.
The ceremony also included greetings from Mr. Brian Gann, Vice President for Enrollment & Student Services, and Dr. Gayle Greene, Executive Vice President & Chief Operations Officer.
