The Rose Society provides the means for the OMWC to offer the mentoring program and leadership training, as well as monthly dinner meetings and other opportunities for the scholars to excel in school and beyond. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">Like Moore, the Rose Society members and the OMWC members are all incredibly passionate about the program, and are continuously seeking new ways of improvement. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cJoining the Rose Society means becoming a part of an amazing group of people who love Ole Miss and who empower the scholars,\u201d Moore said. \u201cThese programs are a unique and powerful way to produce caring and ethical leaders of the future.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cWhen you accept the OMWC scholarship, you become a part of something bigger than yourself,\u201d states OMWC senior scholar, Debra Whitley. \u201cHad it not been for this program, I might have missed out on a lot of important opportunities during my college career.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">As the holidays approach, an annual membership to the Rose Society is an incredible gift to honor a special woman in your life, to join an organization promoting friendship, leadership and philanthropy. Members are invited to all OMWC events, including an annual signature event exclusively for Rose Society members. This year\u2019s event, the Songwriters\u2019 Soiree\u2019, will be held on Friday, April 15, 2016 at the Lyric. <span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>For more information on the Rose Society, please contact Nora Capwell at <a href=\"mailto:omwc@olemiss.edu\">omwc@olemiss.edu<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the many reasons behind the success of the Ole Miss Women\u2019s Council scholarship program is the annual fundraising component, the Rose Society. \u00a0 The OMWC established the Rose Society in 2010 to play a crucial role in the scholarship program.\u00a0 Each year, Rose Society members commit to contribute $1,000 which helps to provide<a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/web20.olemiss.edu\/news\/wordpress\/rose-society\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Read the story &#x2026;<\/a><!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1181],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v15.0 -
