Receiving His Flowers
The award will be presented at the PTK Annual Convention, held at the Kansas City Convention Center in Missouri from April 3 to 5, 2025. Dr. Webster has also been invited to the President’s Luncheon on April 4.
“These college administrators are beloved on campus—they know students by name and by circumstance,” Phi Theta Kappa president and CEO Dr. Lynn Tincher-Ladner previously said about the award. “This award is special because it comes directly from the students, and it is evidence of the gratitude they feel for the support for them and students like them.”
Following the luncheon, he will formally receive the Distinguished College Administrator Award during the Third General Session in the Grand Ballroom. This event, which brings together thousands of students, advisers, college presidents, and other distinguished guests, is sure to be a highlight. Steve Burns, a well-known children’s television personality best known for his work on Blue’s Clues, will be the special guest speaker.
The campus community is ecstatic about Dr. Webster’s achievements and offers sincere congratulations for this merited recognition. This honor is evidence of how important college administrators are in determining the course of students’ lives.
