Non-Endowed Scholarships
- Jessie Ball duPont/Alfred I. duPont Scholarship
Established by Mrs. Jessie Ball duPont in memory of her husband. A
guideline excerpt states: “These scholarships are to be given,
not loaned, but the recipients are requested, after their graduation,
when they have earning capacity, to pass a like amount, as they have
received, on to some deserving boy or girl who needs assistance in
acquiring an education. In this way, it will be a permanent chain
for the benefit of our youth.”
