STATE SCHOLARSHIPS

Blue Ridge College

Chapter 229 of the Acts of 1912 provides that Blue Ridge College
shall grant one scholarship, male or female, from each county and legis-
lative district of Baltimore City. The County Board of Education and
the Board of School Commissioners of Baltimore City, with the ap-
proval of the Senator, makes the appointment after competitive exami-
nation. Those who are awarded scholarships agree to teach school for
two years after leaving college.

Charlotte Hall College

Chapter 321 of the Acts of 1898 provides that Charlotte Hall College
shall grant one scholarship, including tuition, board and room rent,
from each county and legislative district of Baltimore City. The scholar-
ships are awarded by the County Board of Education and the Board of
School Commissioners of Baltimore City after competitive examination.
As there were only four legislative districts in Baltimore City when the
Act was passed, the total scholarships provided are 27.

Johns Hophins University

Chapter 90 of the Acts of 1912 provides that the Johns Hopkins Uni-
versity shall grant a total of 129 scholarships in consideration of the
appropriation made by the State. At the time of the passage of the
Act in 1912, this provided one scholarship for each member of the House
of Delegates, six scholarships from the State at large without reference
to county or legislative district, and three scholarships from each of the
following institutions:

Loyola College,

Maryland Agricultural College (Univ. of Md.)
Mt. St. Mary's College,
Rock Hill College,
St. John's College,
Washington College,
Western Maryland College.

The 102 scholarships which are awarded to the several counties and
the legislative districts of Baltimore City are to be awarded to deserving
young men without means of securing a technical education who must
be graduates of approved high schools. Where there is more than one
applicant for any scholarship, there must be a competitive examination
and the Senator from the particular county or legislative district of
Baltimore City must certify as to his financial need, etc. The scholar-
ships to be awarded from the colleges are to be awarded on scholastic
standing as certified by the President or other executive officer of the
college. These scholarships are limited to the Engineering School and
include free tuition and exemption from all laboratory, library and
graduation fees, as well as purchase of books. One of said scholarships
for each county and each legislative district of Baltimore City is to be
known as a "Senatorial scholarship" and carries with it the payment
of $200 per year, in addition to tuition, etc.

St. John's College

Chapter III of the Acts of 1908, 315 of the Acts of 1878, and 208 of
the Acts of 1804 provide for a scholarship from each county and each
legislative district of Baltimore City, including tuition, board and room
rent, and one scholarship from each county and each legislative district
of Baltimore City for tuition only. In 1908, there were four legislative
districts in Baltimore City, and in 1894, only three legislative districts,
