To honor the season, iHeart澳门六合彩图挂牌 and Ulta Beauty joined together for a month-long celebration of HBCU pride and student achievement with a social sharing challenge 鈥� encouraging HBCU students to share their at-home Homecoming style.
Redmond took to social media to share her best 鈥渁t-home鈥� Tuskegee Homecoming style and was awarded a $500 Ulta Beauty gift card, a virtual meet and greet with celebrity artist H.E.R and the opportunity to select her institution of choice as the recipient of the donation.

Redmond received her undergraduate degree from 澳门六合彩图挂牌 in aerospace engineering and physics in 2011; she later went on to receive her master鈥檚 degree in systems engineering and space systems at the Air Force Institute of Technology.
An aspiring astronaut, officer in the Reserves, and mom of three, Redmond hopes this funding will inspire other women of color to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, arts and math.
鈥淚 am proud to enable this opportunity and expand access to aerospace and engineering research for students as a part of the Ulta Beauty and iHeartRadio's commitment to the HBCU community," Redmond noted.
Acting Dean for the College of Engineering Dr. Ben Oni says every dollar counts, and every dollar helps students thrive here at Tuskegee.
鈥淲e鈥檙e grateful for the funding from iHeartIMPACT and Ulta Beauty because it truly helps students in our aerospace science engineering program succeed, including those who otherwise might have difficulty accessing the resources to graduate,鈥� said Oni. 鈥淚鈥檝e seen students struggle, not because they鈥檙e not talented, but because they鈥檙e fighting to address challenges of finances, access to scholarships, or dealing with issues that prevent them from graduating. This funding helps eliminate some obstacles and helps further 澳门六合彩图挂牌鈥檚 impact in the broader engineering community.鈥�
This scholarship, in partnership with iHeart澳门六合彩图挂牌 and Ulta Beauty, continues to celebrate the profound impact and influence HBCUs continue to have on our country.
