BPI Foundation Awards Scholarships
On May 16, 2019 the Baltimore Polytechnic Institute Foundation hosted their annual Scholarship Reception, awarding more than $87,000 in scholarships to 47 deserving students. A new scholarship awarded this year was the William T. Hastings Memorial Scholarship. The scholarship was named in memory of Mr. Hastings, a former Poly Athletic Director and soccer and wresting coach.

This year the event was held at the Cylburn Arboretum, which provided a beautiful backdrop to honor and celebrate these scholars. Congratulations to all the recipients and thank you to all the Poly alumni and donors who make these scholarships possible, your contributions fund the future of Poly!

Poly Senior Receives Prestigious Award
Poly Ingenuity student, Timothy Honablew '19, was one of 25 students in the United States to be awarded the prestigious Cheatham-White Scholarship at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University, where he will enroll this fall. 

Named for Henry P. Cheatham and George H. White, two African Americans who represented North Carolina in the United States Congress around the turn of the 20th century, this scholarship is a fully funded four-year award covering the costs of tuition, student fees, housing, meals, textbooks, a laptop computer, supplies, travel and personal expenses, in addition to four summers of fully funded enrichment and networking opportunities that may include international travel and study. It is truly a complete award, meant to recognize academic achievement and potential at the highest levels (North Carolina A&T State University).

Timothy plans to major in physics with a minor in computer science. In the future, he hopes to pursue a career path integrating general relativity and quantum mechanics into a unified theory of everything.
