DMC's Gamma Sigma Chapter of Phi Theta Kappa

10/13/2026

Scholar Dash is back March 1–20, 2027, and this year, we’re changing the game!

Introducing Scholar Dash: The Chapter Challenge
Chapters will rally their members, alumni, advisors, and supporters to unlock scholarships for students. The more your chapter raises, the more scholarships you unlock and the closer you get to the top of the leaderboard!

The mission hasn’t changed: creating more scholarship opportunities for PTK members. But this year, we’re making it bigger, more competitive, and a whole lot more fun.

📅 March 1–20, 2027
🏆 Compete as a chapter.
🔓 Unlock scholarships.
🎓 Change a student’s future.

Get your chapter ready. The Challenge is coming.
