I am a P.E.O. and AlphaSigOU is right- only initiated members should know what P.E.O stands for. Education is a main goal of the P.E.O. sisterhood. Cottey College is supported from P.E.O. funds. Also at every monthyly meeting, after the "meeting" part, we have educational sessions- some are done by members, some by husbands, some by outside sources- the idea is for us to learn something new at each meeting. For instance, I've been to meetings where we discuss a popular book, dust in space, geology, the history of chocolate, and lots more. I really am not very active in P.E.O. and I joined because my mother wanted me to so I don't claim to be an expert or anything. I'm not sure how old you have to be to join, but I know of collegians who are members. Also I got a P.E.O. scholarship to college. I do know many older women who are ADPi's and members of P.E.O. both.
