Vicki Dyson Memorial Scholarship

Vicki E. Dyson (1937-1990) put her heart and soul into her role as the American Academy of Osteopathy’s executive director. She truly loved her job and all the people that made up the Academy. She took great pride in serving every individual with whom she came in contact and was very proud of her association with the osteopathic profession. She was a special and caring person who touched lives in many wonderful ways.

The Vicki Dyson Memorial Scholarship was established by Dr. V. Gladys Shutt (aka “Dr. Glad”) in 1990. One award is presented annually to a COMP (Pomona) student in good academic standing, who is a member of SAAO and has completed an elective OMM rotation.

(A very similar award is presented by the American Academy of Osteopathy. For details, check out the SAAO Chapter Notebook at https://www.academyofosteopathy.org/student.)
