Hampton resident Jeremiah Bennett, a 12th grader at Commonwealth Charter Academy and A.W. Beattie Career Center, was named the recipient of the Western PA Odyssey of the Mind 2024 Paul H. Dunn Jr. Memorial Scholarship.

Jeremiah participated in Odyssey of the Mind for five years, and his experience in the program inspired him to pursue a career in engineering. He is studying in the robotics engineering technology program at A.W. Beattie and plans to pursue a degree in mechatronics, which involves the design and analysis of mechanical systems, and electrical engineering.

Mr. Dunn was a structural engineer and longtime volunteer in the Western PA Odyssey of the Mind program. For more information about the program, visit wpaodyssey.org.
