National Honor Society Inducts SUNY Canton Students

2009 Mar 27

A SUNY Canton student from the area was recently recognized for their academic excellence through their induction into the Lambda Eta chapter of Phi Theta Kappa International Honor Society.

Justin Blinn, a Motorsports Performance and Repair major from Lake Placidwas among the students who acheived the high academic standings necessary to join the honor society.

Phi Theta Kappa was formed in 1918 and has become the largest and the most prestigious honor society serving associate-level students around the world. As members, students must maintain a high grade point average and stay involved with the community through service-oriented projects.

Induction into Phi Theta Kappa is among the highest honors available to undergraduate students. Associate degree students are encouraged to continue their studies in one of SUNY Canton's bachelor's degree programs.

Photos of most of the inductees are available at www.canton.edu.

SUNY Canton offers a wide variety of career-driven bachelor's, associate, and certificate programs, as well as three master's degrees in conjunction with SUNYIT, Utica. Most of SUNY Canton's new four-year programs are designed so students can take them on-campus, online, or both. SUNY Canton OnLine features more than 100 courses online each semester. The college's athletic teams belong to the NAIA's Sunrise Conference, enabling students to compete in their respective sports for four years.
