Phi Theta Kappa-Five Star Chapter Development Program Mission Statement
This program, which reflects the scholarly ideals of Phi Theta Kappa, serves as a blueprint for developing a strong chapter and for earning local, regional, and international recognition. In this program, chapters do not compete against one another. Participation encourages excellence and recognizes progress in the attainment of goals set by the chapter.
The Five Star Chapter Development Program has been redesigned to assist chapters in better organizing their projects and initiatives starting with the basic elements of running a chapter in Level One to becoming competitive in Phi Theta Kappa programming in Level Five. Using this program, chapters can build a foundation to leave a lasting legacy for future members.
The Five Star Chapter Development Program is, in effect, a chapter business plan. Using the Five Star Chapter Development Program as a guide to success, chapters can enhance their working relationship with the college administration by becoming active on the campus and in the community. This program will assist chapters in planning and implementing programs that have a positive impact on the lives of others while members gain leadership skills needed to execute change.
On a personal level, involvement in the program will educate chapter members in the importance of deadlines and organizational skills. These skills will be critical as members complete their education and begin serving as community leaders. The leadership skills and planning practices members gain from this program will enable them to create a plan, and implement changes in the world around them.
The term Five Star is interpreted as the peak of excellence when rating products and services such as restaurants, automobiles and hotels. The same holds true for chapters participating in Phi Theta Kappa's Five Star Program. Chapters will gain recognition for their success by meeting the higher standards of quality programming that the term Five Star symbolizes.
The strength of Phi Theta Kappa International Honor Society is determined by the achievements of chapters on the local level. Recognition for these achievements provides reinforcement and encourages a recommitment to chapter goals. By following the steps in the Five Star Chapter Development Guide, chapters gain recognition for their success on the local, regional and international levels.
