The PACEC Scholarship Committee of the Pennsylvania Council for Exceptional Children renamed its student scholarship award to recognize George O'Neill, who was serving as PACEC's Membership Chairperson at the time of his untimely death in May 1981. In recognition of the countless hours he served as both mentor and model to student CEC members, the Executive Board immediately renamed the "PACEC Student Scholarship" the "George O'Neill Memorial Scholarship."

The original motivation for the O’Neill Scholarship Award was to stimulate student membership and involvement in PACEC/CEC. PACEC is committed to the enduring recognition of George's selfless contributions and to supporting our state's special education majors' in this way; while encouraging PACEC student members to become as immersed in our profession and the spirit of volunteerism, as was George O'Neill; one of our most valued members.
