Student Scholarship Winners


AIA Grand Valley selected two West Michigan students to receive $1,000 each in scholarships for their architectural education.  Alissa Hahn and Ethan Sims were selected from a field of 8 highly qualified applicants.  Alissa Hahn of Grandville has just completed her BS in Architecture at University of Michigan and will be starting her Master of Architecture at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago.  Ethan Sims of Grand Rapids is attending University of Detroit Mercy School of Architecture and will be a senior in the BS in Architecture program.  Ethan came highly recommended by the faculty at U of D and was studying in Poland when he applied for the scholarship.  Alissa will be moving to Chicago to complete her architecture studies.  She also was highly recommended by her U of M professors and her AIA Grand Valley mentor, Neale Bauman.  Congratulations to these hard working, dedicated students of architecture. 


AIA National has awarded $500 in a grant to go toward these scholarships.  The remaining $1,500 came from AIA Grand Valley.  The AIA Grand Valley golf outing is the funding mechanism for our student scholarship program.  Thank you for your participation in the golf outing and helping to fund these scholarships for architecture students from West Michigan!
