The Endowment Fund is proud to announce
the recipients of the fall 2005 national scholarships
and awards. The awards total $38,500 - part of over $250,000
awarded annually to deserving graduate and undergraduate
students nationwide.
The Ralph "Dud" Daniel Leadership Award
recognizes a member who has made outstanding leadership
contributions to his chapter, campus and community. A
minimum GPA of 2.5 is required to apply, but the applicant's
leadership accomplishments, rather than GPA, are the primary
factors in the award. Leadership outside the chapter setting
is most important.
The $4,000 award is named in honor of Executive Director
Emeritus Ralph D. "Dud" Daniel, Arizona '47,
who served the Fraternity between 1948 and 1979 in many
capacities, including Executive Director and President
of the Endowment Fund. Dud, affectionately known as Mr.
Phi Psi, continues to serve the Fraternity as its
most recognized and beloved diplomat in Interfraternity
circles.
Our Ralph D. Daniel Leadership Award winner is:
Michael Wakefield, University of Virginia
The Ernest H. Garbe Award was created to honor
Ernie Garbe, Columbia '40. This award recognizes

the NYC Alumni Association sponsored. The award is $2,500

The Winston R. "Win" Tate Award
