Gateway Community College’s Alpha Xi Theta
chapter of the Phi Theta Kappa honor society will be collecting redeemable bottles and
cans, textbooks, cell phones, inkjet cartridges and eyeglasses to support various
causes on Saturday, Jan. 7, and Feb. 11.
The inaugural “Collecting for Causes” events each will be held from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in
the parking lots at both the college’s Long Wharf campus at 60 Sargent Drive and its
North Haven campus at 88 Bassett Road.
The mission of the Phi Theta Kappa is to recognize and encourage the academic
success of students attending two-year colleges. Members have the opportunity to
participate in honors and leadership programs, community service and fellowship
programming. Students may be inducted into Phi Theta Kappa at GCC if they have
completed 12 hours of course work while achieving a grade point average of 3.5 or
higher.
