A scholarship to honor Phi Theta Kappa and its members is open 2/24/18 - 6/31/18.

"I'm forever grateful to Phi Theta Kappa for introducing me to Rhonald Akridge. And though he's no longer with us, our souls are forever connected by the friendship and bond we shared.

Since Rhonald's passing, it's been on my heart to do something in his honor--to keep his legacy alive. I love it when life opens doors to opportunities that allow us to live out our purpose. This Saturday morning, February 24th, I'll be delivering the keynote at the Minn-Kota Regional Phi Theta Kappa conference. Nearly 20 years after becoming a member of Phi Theta Kappa, I'm returning to share the impact that Phi Theta Kappa has had on my life. When I was asked to speak, I also knew it was fate's way of introducing Rhonald to a whole new audience of incredible Phi Theta Kappans. And I plan to do so by honoring Rhonald in the best way I can--by giving back.

On behalf of Hopeful to Hired, I'm proud to announce the Rhonald Akridge Memomorial Phi Theta Kappa Transfer Scholarship. This new transfer scholarship will be awarded to a Minn-Kota Regional Phi Theta Kappa member in good standing, who best articulates how they plan to use their education and calling in life to change the world."
