7. The Commission shall have power to establish rules and regulations
to govern the award of these scholarships; provided, however, that two
of these rules shall be (1) that no scholarship shall be awarded to any
student or prospective student who would not be qualified for admission
and accepted by the University of Maryland, unless denied admission for
other reasons, for the particular work that such student desires to under-
take; and (2) that no student, after having been awarded such a scholar-
ship and while attending the college or university or institute to which said
scholarship may be awarded, shall be qualified to hold the scholarship and
to continue thereunder unless he maintains the same educational standards
as would have to be maintained if he were taking the same work at the
University of Maryland. It is declared to be the intent of this sub-title that
the scholarships herein referred to shall supplement and not in any way
duplicate work given at Morgan or Princess Anne Colleges, so that mem-
bers of the negro race may receive the full benefit of the provisions of this
sub-title, provided, however, that scholarships granted to students now at
Morgan College, or to students at any other college, shall be continued
until graduation of said students, provided graduation takes place within
