2009 Scholarships Awarded
At the National Meeting at SETC in Birmingham, AL on March 6, 2009, it was announced that the 2009 scholarships have been awarded to Mallorie Rodak of Drury University in Springfield, MO and Joshua Peters of West Virginia Wesleyan College in Lynchburg, VA. Congratulations to them both!
Deadline for applications for the 2010 scholarships is January 15, 2010. Application instructions are on this page. And as a reminder, the scholarships were increased recently to $750 each and the best problem we could imagine is to have a very difficult time deciding who to award them to!
Dues Increase
As of January 1, 2007, the National Initiation Fee (aka "Dues") has been raised to $30 per initiate for Alpha Psi Omega and $15 for Delta Psi Omega.
