Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society (PTK) will recognize eight retiring college presidents and chancellors with the Michael Bennett Lifetime Achievement Award during PTK Catalyst 2022, the Society’s annual convention in Denver, Colorado, April 7-9.
These awards are given to retiring college presidents and chancellors who have shown support of student success initiatives leading to stronger pathways to completion, transfer, and employment. They have taken an active interest in supporting high-achieving students and developing student leaders on campus. Recipients are nominated by the students on their campus.
“These college leaders have made student success a priority throughout their career,” says Phi Theta Kappa President and CEO Dr. Lynn Tincher-Ladner. “Their nomination is evidence of the gratitude their PTK students feel for supporting them and students like them as they work toward completion, transfer, and employment.”
