About Our Program

Hudson & Holland Scholarship program has re-evaluated and updated our mission and core values as we seek to serve some of the best and brightest students in Indiana University Bloomington’s Campus.

The reimagined mission of Hudson & Holland is to enhance inclusive excellence at Indiana University through the recruitment, support, and holistic development of high-achieving students from historically-excluded, underrepresented minority groups.

Hudson & Holland is committed not only to our Scholars’ academic success, we are also deeply committed to the social, emotional, and mental well-being of our students. Our office provides a variety of support services to address the holistic needs of our scholars throughout their tenure at IU. Hudson & Holland Scholars are some of the most scholastically successful students at IU, and their presence and contributions deeply enrich the campus learning environment.

Hudson Hollands new motto, HHSP S.U.C.C.E.E.D.s is reflected in the following values:

• Scholarship
  • Our scholars pursue elevated academic success through engaging in active learning in and outside the classroom, maintaining a 3.0 GPA, and applying their unique skills and talents to their academic pursuits.
• Uplift
  • Our scholars are uplifted through active, present, supportive, hospitable, and enthusiastic Hudson & Holland staff. Our scholars uplift each other by affirming their humanity and giving their peers grace, understanding, care, and accountability as they walk the road to graduation together.
• Community
  • Our scholars actively serve and participate in and make a positive impact on their Hudson & Holland campus and Bloomington communities.
• Creativity
  • Our scholars are encouraged to display and celebrate creativity, uniqueness, and artistic expression through participating in and supporting events, programs, initiatives, and best practices that cultivate artistry, innovation, imagination, and originality.
• Empowerment
  • Our scholars are empowered to become their best selves through our holistic support services, programs, and initiatives that seek to enhance their Indiana University experience.
• Equity
  • Our scholars commit to equity by treating their peers and the broader global community with impartiality and fairness, by recognizing that diversity elevates the individual as well as the whole, by understanding the complexity and intersections of identities, and by diligently demonstrating an attitude that recognizes the value and contributions of all members of the campus community.
• Development
  • Our scholars engage in programs, initiatives, and best practices within our office and across campus that support their development as well-rounded humans, productive students, and positive leaders.
