Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society

Phi Theta Kappa is the international honor society of two-year colleges and academic programs. It serves to recognize and encourage scholarship among two-year college students. To achieve this purpose, Phi Theta Kappa provides opportunities for the development of leadership and service, for an intellectual climate for exchange of ideas and ideals, for lively fellowship for scholars, and for stimulation of interest in continuing academic excellence.

To be eligible for Phi Theta Kappa, a student must be enrolled in a regionally accredited institution offering an associate degree program; must have completed at least 12 hours of coursework that may be applied to an associate degree (part-time students are eligible at New River CTC); and have a grade point average of 3.5 or higher.

New River CTC Student Government Association (SGA)

The function of the Student Government Associations at New River CTC is to be a representative body of students in the decision making process directly affecting students at New River CTC; to serve as a link between the College administration and the student body in affairs of general welfare; to improve student relationships, initiative, self-expression, intercollegiate, community and school activities at the College. The College has SGAs at the Advanced Technology Center, Greenbrier Valley Campus, Mercer County Campus, Nicholas County Campus and the Raleigh County Campus.

SGA can also provide a forum for opinions as well as a calendar of cultural and fun events throughout the academic year. There are Halloween parties and Christmas functions geared for children of students as well as dances, gaming activities, and opportunities for community service.

Student Practical Nurse Organization (SPNO)

The Student Practical Nurse Organization encourages and promotes the development of each student by encouraging individual and group participation in a professional nursing organization as a means to further their nursing education and social activities.
