Our Mission
“The mission of the Hudson & Holland Scholars Programs is to recruit, retain and prepare students with outstanding records of academic achievement, strong leadership experiences, and a commitment to social justice. The specific policies and procedures designed and implemented for these Programs by the Office of HHSP are done with the goal of assuring that the Scholars take full advantage of the opportunities provided at Indiana University in order to better prepare themselves for very successful careers after they leave Bloomington and to assure that they contribute to an improvement in the overall academic environment of the Bloomington campus. These Programs are an integral part of Indiana University's efforts to foster the benefits of educational diversity, in part by assuring the obtainment of a critical mass of students from underrepresented minority backgrounds with a history of discrimination. As such, during the application process positive considerations are given to students from underrepresented minority backgrounds and whose presence will enhance the learning environment through increased diversity at Indiana University.”
