MISSION STATEMENT
Phi Theta Kappa’s purpose is to first and foremost recognize scholarly
achievement among two-year college students. In addition to this, members have opportunities for personal growth
through involvement in a variety of programs centered on the Society
Hallmarks of Scholarship, Leadership, Service and Fellowship. Many Phi Theta
Kappa programs also promote civic engagement, by encouraging
participants to think of chapter programming in terms of its impact on
the college campus and in the community.

HALLMARKS
Participation encourages excellence, reflects fairness, recognizes quality, and leads to enhanced student, advisor, and chapter development.
Hallmark Program

SCHOLARSHIP
Programs primarily focus on educating chapter members, other chapters, the college’s student body and the community about important issues raised by the Phi Theta Kappa Honors Study Topic. Chapter programming related to the Scholarship Hallmark should also recognize and encourage the academic achievements of members, students and faculty.

LEADERSHIP Programs encourage chapters
and members to assume roles as leaders in their chapters, colleges, and communities as well as on regional and/or international levels of the Society. In addition to assuming leadership positions, chapters are encouraged to foster the development of leadership skills among others through their programming.

SERVICE Chapter initiatives related to the
Service Hallmark should be primarily focused on the International Service Program. Other Service Hallmark activities include both service to the college and community outside the scope of the International Service Program, and activities that stress to others the value of and need for providing service.

FELLOWSHIP Phi Theta Kappa is truly a
fellowship of scholars. As such, the hallmark of Fellowship is an intrinsic part of all Society programs. Chapters promote development among inactive chapters, facilitate communication between chapters and offer a balance of social and scholarly events

HONORS IN ACTION
The use of two or more hallmarks, (plus Fellowship) in project planning and implementation. Scholarship begins with the Honors Study Topic.
How can scholarship and leadership be combined in a single project?

HONORS STUDY TOPIC
The Paradox of Affluence:
Choices, Challenges, and Consequences
Paradox - a statement that is seemingly contradictory or opposed to common sense and yet is perhaps true.
Affluence - (a) an abundant flow or supply: Profusion. (b) an abundance of property: Wealth.

GOAL SETTING
Goals just don’t “happen”
Set a common “vision”
What do we want?
Why do we want it?
How do we intend to get it?
When do we expect to finish?
![Page 11: Strategies For Improving Hallmark Entries[1]](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110113/5452dcbfaf795952668b8625/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
GOAL SETTING Hardest part of Hallmark Award
Entries Why?
Extremely time consuming Turn over rate of chapter officers Project changes throughout year Hard to determine year’s projects
and programs Not enough experience Constantly adapting to
circumstances Not kept on record
![Page 12: Strategies For Improving Hallmark Entries[1]](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110113/5452dcbfaf795952668b8625/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
BRAINSTORMING
Begin with ideas from the group Do NOT discount good opportunities:
Even though it may not be a good idea for the intended project, do not discount it
You may reuse ideas at a later date to broaden your projects
Once it is on the board, the “idea” does not belong to any one person
Once all ideas are noted, then begin to decide whether it is an opportunity or not.
Next, decide if the proposed idea is suitable for the project at hand.
ALWAYS keep the extra ideas for future use!!

BE S.MA.R.T.E.R.
SIMPLE: Clear, simple, specific goals give people an unmistakable vision of what needs to be done.
MEASURABLE: Establish how progress will be determined.
ACCOUNTABLE: Someone must be responsible for achieving the goal. Gives a sense of purpose to the goal.
REALISTIC: Both in terms of being meaningful and affordable. Goals without meaning are considered unrealistic.
TIMELY: Each element of action that must occur to achieve the goal should have a deadline established.
EXTENDING: Don’t forget your timeline! Set milestone dates for different tasks and stages of the goal.
REWRDING AND RECOGNITION: Participation in a project is more likely when members are rewarded and/or recognized for their efforts.

PLANNING AN EVENT
Share a “vision”. Your team must determine what accomplishments
would lead to your vision. Participation creates a sense of ownership and a
feeling of common destiny among those who help set the goals.
Group wisdom can help eliminate impractical ideas. Examples:
Your community has a food pantry that services a lot of families in your area.
Your community has recently been affected by a severe ice storm or tornado.
