MARYLAND MANUAL 43
THE JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY
Baltimore, Maryland
Chapter 90 of the Acts of 1912 provides that the Johns Hopkins
University 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 deserv-
ing 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 legisla-
tive district of Baltimore City must certify as to his financial need,
etc. The scholarships 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, except the Fifth and Sixth, which were created
after the passage of the Act, is to be known as a "Senatorial scholar-
ship" and carries with it the payment of $200 per year, in addition
to tuition, etc.
In the summer of 1942 instruction in the School of Engineering was put
on a year-round basis in order to meet the war demand for trained engineers.
After informal consultations with State officers, the University awarded
scholarships in the regular amount for this summer term. At the 1943 session
of the General Assembly provision was made to reimburse the University
for the scholarships awarded the previous summer and to provide funds for
scholarship awards in the summer term of 1943.
