If circumstances followed the normal pattern, the seniors would have donned their caps and gowns this past Mother’s Day to attend Hampton University’s 150th Commencement ceremony. These students have worked hard these past years to earn their degrees and so Hampton University wants to recognize the importance of honoring their achievements. 2020, May 16 Dr. and Mrs. William R.

Mellon Foundation's gift of $100,000 to the University in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Hampton University will use the $200,000 to provide each on-campus student $100 to assist with travel costs to retrieve their belongings or return to school in the fall. 2020, May 8 Hampton University student, Sierra Williams-McLeod, was selected to receive $10,000 as a 2020 EmPOWERED to Serve Scholar.
