Phi Theta Kappa is the international scholastic honor society for community college students. Lambda Chapter was established at Flat River Junior College in 1926 and continues at Mineral Area College.

PTK inductions take place in October and March of each school year. To be sent an invitation for induction, a student must be enrolled at Mineral Area College and have completed 12 credit hours of 100 level and above coursework with a cumulative GPA of 3.5 on a 4.0-point scale. Members failing to maintain their scholastic averages receive probation for one semester and are dropped if the required average of 3.0 is not maintained.
