Its objectives are to recognize and encourage excellence in education, to promote the development of leadership ability and character, and to foster, disseminate, and improve education through appropriate service projects.<\/p>\n Vice President of Advancement Pam Ballew was the keynote speaker. \u201cFind your passion and it will fuel your motivation to be the very best you can be,\u201d she said. \u201cDo not allow obstacles to define you or hold you back. Figure out how to make them work in your favor. Decide which personal sacrifices you are willing to make. And, if somewhere along the way you decide to live out a lifelong dream, just remember that it\u2019s never too late. If you do all of these things, I promise you, you will not finish last.\u201d\u200b\u200b<\/span><\/p>\n To be eligible for Gamma Beta Phi, NCC students must hold a 3.0 or higher cumulative grade point average and must have earned 12 or more semester hours in a major at Nash Community College.
