Michael Davenport Class 1-77 THE JOHN CONNCJLLY AWARD James Evans Class 4-77 T. James S pencer Class 1-78 The John Connolly Memorial Award is the only outstanding graduate award presented at PCC. It is a semi-annual award sponsored by the Delta Sigma Chi fraternity, and presented to the most outstanding eleventh or twelfth quarter student upon his or her graduation. The purpose of the John Connolly Award is two-fold. First, it is to commemorate the memory of John Connolly who was both an acitve brother of the Delta Sigma Chi Fraternity and an outstanding member of the student body at the time of his death in February of 1968. The second purpose of the award is to recognize and honor that individual who through his or her record as a student of Palmer College of Chiropractic, has, without personal regard or selfish motive, excelled in his or her participation in extra-curricular activities while still maintaining an average scholarship rating. Up to ten finalists for the award are nominated by the classes involved. The finalists are then judged under a rigid poirrl: system by the Executive Committee of Palmer College and the president of Delta Sigma Chi fraternity. Points are awarded for personality, extra-cur- ricular activitees, and scholastic ability, the latter being the least important. The nominee who receives the most points is the recipient of the award which is presented to that person upon graduation by the president of the Delta Sigma Chi fraternity.
