Harry McCullough Mims, Sr., Scholarship

The Harry McCullough Mims, Sr., Scholarship was initiated in 1993 by Evelyn Johnston Mims, Dicksie Mims Ward, and Harry McCullough Mims, Jr., The Citadel Class of 1963, in memory of their father. Recipients of the scholarship are chosen on the basis of ability, character, temperament, and personality in accord with traditionally high standards of The Citadel. Preference is given to a rising senior cadet with an average academic record, who demonstrates an enthusiastic interest in civil engineering as a profession and an interest in highways or transportation, and who participates in departmental activities. Recommendations are made by full-time civil engineering faculty. Financial need should be a major but not a controlling factor. The first award was made in 1995.
