Maria — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 00:49:17 +0000

One of the great things that Phi Theta Kappa makes available to it’s members are two programs that help you with life after community college and beyond, which are:

 - College Fish: your number one resource to search school, scholarships and all that it’s needed for a successful transfer.
 AND
 - Competitive Edge: a professional development plan based on what ‘Fortune 500′ companies look for and value in their employees.

  Iota Xi is offering TWO workshops – on both – on the following dates and times: 
*Thursday NOVEMBER 3rd, from 11am to 12pm. Room TBA. 
*Saturday NOVEMBER 12th, from 12 to 1pm at room L-302.
 If planning to attend, send me an email at maria.botinelly@gmail.com so I can have a head count and give you instructions of what to bring.

 Hope to see you there!

Officer’s Academy at King’s College

Paola Cruz — Thu, 29 Sep 2011 03:44:41 +0000

Iota Xi’s Chapter officers and faculty advisor, Dr. Mandana Ahsani attended the Phi Theta Kappa regional officers training in Wilkes Barre PA. During the three day program, we met officers from other chapters in the Middle States Region and learned skills that have helped us improve our performance as leaders.

Also, we are happy to announce that Iota Xi Secretary Maria Braga was chosen as Regional Vice President of Honors for the entire Middle States Region. There was a competitive election during the Officers Academy where three other candidates ran for the position that Miss Braga now holds. We wish her a successful year. We surely know that she is going to give her best as she has done in our chapter.

At this academy, we were encouraged to complete the 5-Star Competitive Edge program. This program helps members “build an online portfolio” that will showcase their accomplishments in one convenient location. Then you can easily share the information with scholarship providers, admissions officials and potential employers.

If you are also interested in networking with students from our campus and around the world. If you want to learn more about competitive edge or a leadership roles, please come to our weekly meetings. You may find opportunities and the answers you are looking for.

Sincerely,

Paola Cruz

Maria Braga

Greetings student leaders and advisors,
My name is David Seale. I am a student at the County College of Morris, in Randolph, New Jersey. I am a former President of the Student Government, and the current International Vice-President for Phi Theta Kappa, International Honors Society for Two-Year Colleges. In 2008, I formed the New Jersey Community College Student Leader Union, a student led and student organized group aimed at facilitating inter-collegiate discussions concerning budget challenges. I hope to continue these efforts this year, with the added intent of furthering the nation’s Community College Completion Agenda and discussing C4 (Community College Completion Corps).

Natalie Lattimore (Student Government President of County College of Morris) and I would like to invite you to this year’s (hopefully annual) summit, hosted by CCM. We will begin with a welcome from our College President, follow with an informal debriefing regarding these issues, and conclude with a group discussion concerning the obstacles that individual institutions are facing, as well as possible action points that we – as a coalition – can take to mitigate these budget and graduation challenges. This summit assumes no prior knowledge or experience related to these issues, and all are welcome. I ask you to seek the means to attend and to encourage other student leaders and groups on your campus to do the same.

Lunch will be provided by County College of Morris’ Student Government Association’s College Progress Grant.

Date: February 18th
Time: Check-in: 9:00am-10:30am, Adjournment: 3pm

County College of Morris 214 Center Grove Road
Randolph, NJ 07869
Student Community Center, near parking lot 6 Campus Map

Please RSVP to Natalie Lattimore with name, college, student group you are representing (if any), and approximate number of attendees. Please forward any questions to Natalie Lattimore or David Seale

Professionally,

The New Jersey Community College Student Leader Union
