Beinecke Memorial Scholarship

The Beinecke Memorial Scholarship Program supports graduate study in the arts, humanities and social sciences. The Board of Directors of The Sperry and Hutchinson Company created the endowment to provide substantial graduate school scholarships honoring Edwin, Frederick and Walter Beinecke. These three brothers led The Sperry and Hutchinson company in the 1920s, building it from a small enterprise to one with revenues exceeding $350 million by 1970.

Since 1975 the scholarship program has selected more than 335 highly motivated college juniors from 94 different schools to receive financial support during graduate study at any accredited university. Each scholar receives $2,000 immediately prior to entering graduate school and an additional $30,000 while attending.

Earlham is among 100 U.S. colleges and universities (and among only three within the Great Lakes Colleges Association) eligible to nominate a student for the Beinecke Scholarship.
