Mary Lou Petitt, a 1948 graduate of DePauw University, has been named the Mercy Otis Warren Cape Cod Woman of the Year. Petitt "has led many social justice and housing causes on the Cape since the mid-1980s," according to a story in the Barnstable Patriot of Hyannis, Massachusetts. "The annual award named for the 18th century playwright and Revolutionary War historian born in West Barnstable was presented June 9 at the Olde Colonial Courthouse in Barnstable Village."
