Overview

The Mac Hyde Brownfield Scholarship Program honors the legacy of environmental law pioneer Maclay Hyde by supporting students pursuing studies related to brownfield redevelopment. This $2,000 scholarship is awarded to undergraduate or graduate students at accredited Minnesota institutions, focusing on fields like engineering, public policy, and environmental sciences.

Maclay “Mac” Hyde (1934-2013) was a pioneering environmental law attorney and real estate developer of polluted, often abandoned brownfield sites. Brownfields are properties where redevelopment is complicated by the presence or potential presence of environmental contamination. Mac was an inspiration and a mentor to many in the field of brownfield redevelopment and environmental law. At past ReScape Awards, Mac was remembered through the Mac Hyde Leadership Award. The scholarship now honors Mac’s life and legacy by supporting the next generation of innovative brownfield redevelopment minds. To celebrate Mac Hyde, Minnesota Brownfields offers this scholarship to students pursuing studies in diverse fields related to brownfield redevelopment.
