A Moline High School student has been chosen to receive a scholarship from the Dolores A. Hulse-DiIulio Scholarship Fund administered through The Moline Foundation.
Arianna Bauer, Moline, recently graduated from Moline High School. She plans to attend Black Hawk College, Moline, Illinois this fall to major in Pre-Engineering.
Arianna was chosen by a local scholarship selection committee through The Moline Foundation to receive a scholarship of $1,000.
The Dolores A Hulse-DiIulio Scholarship Fund is intended to provide funds to deserving female students graduating from Moline High School pursing a bachelor's degree on a full time basis with studies in the fields of chemistry, physics, engineering or pre-medicine.
Dolores A. Hulse-DiIulio was a chemistry teacher at Moline High School for 36 years. She retired in 1994.
A 1958 graduate of Eastern Illinois University with a major in Chemistry and minors in Math and Physics, Dolores began teaching at Moline when the new high school opened on 23rd Avenue. She has always wanted females to believe that the field of science was for them not just for men. Her hope is that this scholarship may help female students and encourage them in their goals.
