THE CHARLES R. DREW SCHOLARSHIP
COMMISSION
2009 – 2010 Scholarship
Brochure
The
Founders of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. recognized the importance of the
intellect in all matters pertaining to the advancement of humankind. As such, they made scholarship the
foremost of the Fraternity’s four Cardinal Principles: Manhood, Scholarship,
Perseverance, and Uplift.
Scholarship is no side issue – it is an integral and deep-rooted
component of this organization. Every member, Chapter, and District of the
Fraternity is dedicated to scholarship. Thus, the Charles R. Drew Memorial
Scholarship Commission was formed to give national recognition to future
leaders of society and to foster scholastic achievement in the Fraternity
through the following goals:
- To increase awareness
and the importance of the scholarship, especially among the undergraduate
members
- To encourage
high scholastic attainment at the International, District, and Chapter
levels
- To encourage
Chapters and Districts to
reward high scholastic attainment by providing scholarship aid to students
on all levels, and to work toward stimulation of scholarly aims among
youth in secondary schools
- To encourage
meaningful research and creative productivity among all Americans without
regard to race, creed, sex, or Greek-letter affiliation
In
pursuit of these goals, the Charles R. Drew Memorial Scholarship Commission
distributes materials, evaluates individual performances, and reviews projects
for which monetary grants and awards are given. The following scholarships
will be awarded by the Charles R. Drew Memorial Scholarship Commission:
I. District/International Scholar of the Year (Fraternity Members Only)
