Scholarship & Induction
Nicole Webb, one of PTK’s very own member, received a 2 year scholarship of $11,000 for earning and sustaining a GPA of over 3.5 from Seattle University.
Out of 500 applicants, 119 received Pride Foundation scholarships for their work in the GLBTQ community. She received two scholarships, and both will go toward a BASW.
Well done Nicole!
On another note, we had our induction ceremony last Friday, May 29th, and it was defintely a tear-jerking experience for all us three current retiring officers. With Vivian going to Seattle University, Ly to New York University, and myself to University of Washington, graduation will be a bittersweet experience for us, which i’m sure is the same for everyone else.
We are all excited for our next phase in our academic life, yet sad to leave our wonderful advisor, Melissa Grinley, for providing us an amazing and enriching experience in the chapter. I feel like being an officer in Phi Theta Kappa have given me some of the best memories i could ever have, especially since all four of us have gotten closer over the course of months.
They now share one of my secrets that they would never have known without sharing a hotel bedroom with (hehe).
I wanted to take this opportunity to congratulate the new members, and also our new officers who will be presiding the chapter from summer’09 onwards. We are excited for new leadership, and believe that they will grow with the chapter, like we have!

Thank you Melissa! You have been a motherly figure and a great friend to us!
