Pearl River Community College Leadership Honors Forum

The central focus of The Phi Theta Kappa Leadership Honors Forum is the development of leadership skills. Phi Theta Kappa believes that "within every individual there exists leadership potential." PTK maintains that "leadership can be taught." PTK believes that "developing a personal leadership philosophy is a prerequisite to learning and applying leadership skills."

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, and become more, you are a leader. John Quincy Adams		Where there is no vision, the people perish. Proverbs 29:18

At Pearl River Community College, the Leadership Honors Forum is designed to provide a basic understanding of leadership theory and philosophies as well as to provide knowledge of group dynamics theory. Students are encouraged to develop and/or affirm a personal philosophy of leadership; cultivate an awareness of the moral and ethical responsibilities of leadership; and exercise an awareness of one's own leadership style. The Leadership Honors Forum integrates the humanities, the classics, experiential learning, and popular culture in order to facilitate a seminar style learning environment. This class meets three hours per week, and students receive three semester hours of humanity's credit upon completion of the course.
