This Thursday, November 13, 2015, Georgia Military College Columbus students, faculty, and staff came together to sign a pledge for “Commit to Completion:” an initiative of national honor fraternity Phi Theta Kappa.

The members must also adhere to the moral code of PTK. All of the members pledged to commit to completion. The newest Phi Theta Kappa members of Georgia Military College Columbus are: Savannah Allen of Columbus, GA, Typheni Bady of Columbus, GA, Michael Dorsey of Columbus, GA, Tara Frink of Columbus, GA, Nicole Hakes of Phenix City, AL, Jesse Hunt of Columbus, GA, Tierra Jones of Columbus, GA, Savannah Melton of Cataula, GA, Rachel Mitchell of Columbus, GA, Annabella Ryan of Columbus, GA, Tiffany Siler of Phenix City, AL, Travis Siler of Phenix City, AL, Chauncey Thomas of Columbus, GA, Lesa Wafford of Phenix City, AL, and Joshua Wheat of Columbus, GA.
