Donald Heinle Memorial Scholarship
The Donald Heinle Memorial Scholarship was established in 2020 by Lance Heinle in memory of his father. Don grew up on a farm in rural North Dakota and was proud of his German heritage. He was the first member of his family to graduate from college, receiving his degree in computer science from North Dakota State College of Science in 1965. His belief in a college education was instilled in his four kids, all of whom graduated from college. This included Lance Heinle, who earned two degrees in Chemistry from Illinois State University (B.S. '99, M.S. '01).
