Memorial Scholarship Program
About the Program
Since 2017, Gamma Omicron Boule in partnership with the Tampa Bay area Boys and Girls Club, has raised over $80,000 in scholarship funds to assist ten young men in their pursuit of a college education. The Archons of Gamma Omicron Boule, award scholarships at their annual Carter G. Woodson Lecture Series to outstanding seniors that are interested in pursuing a college education. These young men are judged on their academic achievement, community service, personal references and a written essay.
On August 4, 2018, Archons of the Sigma Pi Phi, Gamma Omicron Boule, hosted a back to school luncheon at Season's 52 in Tampa, FL for nine of the ten 2017 and 2018 Gamma Omicron Memorial Scholarship Winners before they headed to college. The true learning occurred when the 2017 scholarship winners (all rising sophomores) were asked to provide the 2018 scholarship winners (all entering freshmen) with tips on being successful in college.
