David D. Morgan ‘Extra Mile’ Scholarship

The Morgan ‘Extra Mile’ Scholarship Program seeks to recognize academic performance while encouraging active and sustained involvement in NSU all while remaining active in the affairs and operation of the Beta Omicron Chapter.

BACKGROUND
The David D. Morgan ‘Extra Mile’ Scholarship Program is funded by and named for Beta Omicron Chapter alumnus David D. Morgan.  An entrepreneur, an insurance executive, and a leader within his industry and his fraternity, Brother Morgan has spent a considerable portion of his life helping others to be successful.

Whether through the offering of insurance products to association members across the country that help provide a greater peace of mind, or through his volunteer work with several Pi Kappa Phi chapters, Brother Morgan’s demonstrated commitment to helping people (especially his Pi Kappa Phi brothers) is a trademark of his personality.  Distilling the lessons he learned growing up in Louisiana – lessons of hard work, industriousness, and self-determination – into the heart of this new initiative, the Pi Kappa Phi Foundation created the Morgan ‘Extra Mile’ Scholarship Program in 2008.
