Dr. Emmett Ellis Chapter Scholarship Award

ellis

Dr. Emmett Ellis, Central Missouri ’20, was a mathematics professor and perhaps the greatest academic among the extraordinary scholars that comprised the Founders. Ellis recruited the first chapter advisor, professor of physics Dr. Wilson C. Morris, to be the Sponsor of the Founders at the time. Dr. Wilson C. Morris was the unequaled intellect among the faculty at their campus.

Ellis believed that a true fraternal gentleman must be an intellectual as well as a social creature.

This award recognizes chapters that strive for intellectual excellence and show an emphasis on scholarship as reflected by their chapter GPA as well as academic programming initiatives.
