    About the Award: In 2019, the scholarship was renamed the Pamela McCullough McEwen Memorial Scholarship Award in honor of Pamela M. McEwen, who gave the sorority more than two decades of national OPA experience, serving most notably as Vice President of Finance or National Treasurer. Pamela passed away in 2017, shortly after celebrating OPA's 50th anniversary.
