News: Community leaders voice strong support for Durham Tech bond referendum at county meeting
Community leaders from Duke Health, Novo Nordisk, Made in Durham, and the Greater Durham Chamber of Commerce voiced strong support for the proposed Durham Tech bond referendum this fall, which would build a new Health Sciences Center, Life Sciences Training Center, a pedestrian connector over Lawson Street, and acquisition of property for future expansion of Main Campus. 

The Durham County Board of Commissioners held a public hearing on July 12 to hear from the community regarding potential bond issues on the November 2022 ballot.  

The $112.7 million referendum, if approved, would provide high-quality training hubs for major regional industries in healthcare and life sciences. With booming career opportunities in these sectors, Durham Tech is well-positioned to train local talent and provide a diverse workforce pipeline to area companies.

The hubs will provide institutional support for faculty to develop evidence-based practices that are essential to student success and credential completion. Full-time and part-time faculty and staff educators will have the opportunity to participate in virtual, in-person, and hybrid workshops and seminars that lead to more equitable student outcomes.
News: Fidelity Scholar: Program gives diverse types of support, helps him be well-rounded
Durham Tech student Juan-Pablo Quintanilla Ha began his interest in the Fidelity Scholars program during high school, when a guidance counselor shared information on the program.

“After learning about the Fidelity program from a high school counselor of mine, I researched the program and found I was a fit because of my Latino-Asian descent, but also because of my academic excellence and it helped that I am a go-getter,” said Ha, who was one of the Durham Tech students selected for the program. “I was then all about the program and how it could help me get a college education.”

Ha saw Fidelity’s program as a way to receive money for college, but quickly learned it was much more.

News: 60 for 60: Scholarships shape futures of Durham Tech students, graduates
Scholarships are often the difference between choosing college or not. Students rely on scholarships to alleviate the financial burden of college so they can pursue their academic and professional goals.

The first scholarships offered at Durham Tech were funded by outside organizations who hoped to make college more accessible and affordable.

In 1967, the American Fund for Dental Education provided one of the first scholarships at Durham Tech, providing 11 scholarships ranging from $500 to $2,000.
One year later, nursing students were offered the Crawford-Clark Scholarship that was administered by North Carolina Memorial Hospital.

Businesses like Ford Motor Company, Pilot Club, Alturusa Club, City of Durham, NC Society of Accountant also offered scholarships to Durham Tech students.
By 1982, former president Dr. Phail Wynn, Jr., created the Durham Tech Foundation to manage, develop, and oversee student scholarships.

Chair and CEO of O’Brien Atkins Associates, John Atkins and his wife Sandra Atkins both attended Durham Tech. Together with the President and COO Kevin Montgomery, the firm supported the College by establishing the first internal scholarship with the Foundation.

As Durham natives, the firm wanted to give back locally and invest in students at Durham Tech who were interested in pursuing an architectural career.
