Congratulations young man and your photo is terrific! Now here's a confession - I may just be the only person in the United States to ever turn down an invitation to join PTK. Chalk it up to my youthful rebellious phase. I'm glad you are much smarter than I.

Great and happy picture! 
For those of us this side who might be able to read Greek but do not recognise what the words mean in this context can we have an explanation about what this organisation is? It sounded like a Fraternity but that wouldn't have female officers surely?

Phi Theta Kappa is an international community college honor society. One has to maintain certain grade standards to be invited to join.

PTK is a honours society for two-year college students. There are similar honours societies for the major disciplines of study; for example, I am a member of Phi Alpha Theta, the honours society for historians. That is why membership is co-ed.

Most folks know Phi Beta Kappa for four year college honors students, as pointed out Phi Theta Kappa is for two year college honors students.
Its not a social fraternity where folks usually live together on/near campus etc.
So I belong to a social fraternity Alpha Sigma Phi and an honors fraternity Phi Theta Kappa.
