BDPA Southern Minnesota chapter has a powerful history of success in the National BDPA High School Computer Competition (HSCC) from 2002-2009. This slideshow documents the elements of that success.
BDPA Southern Minnesota chapter president Nat Calvert created this slideshow.
This is the criteria used to evaluate the efforts of all 46 BDPA chapters from Jan-Dec 2013.
Some chapter leaders mistakenly think that this document is solely for the benefit of getting awards and recognition. It serves a much greater purpose when you think about it.
This document spells out what a fully-functioning BDPA chapter should be doing. It is a national standard that should be used as a measuring tool for your chapter regularly throughout the year.
City Attorney Dennis Herrera sent a pre-litigation demand letter and draft complaint to McDonald's Corporation this afternoon, informing the Oak Brook, Ill.-based fast-food giant of its civil liability for violations of the California Drug Abatement Act and Unfair Competition Law at the property it owns in San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury neighborhood.
The letter and complaint sent to President and CEO Steve Easterbrook detail the bases for which McDonald's Corporation could be held legally accountable for the lawlessness harbored at its 730 Stanyan Street property, where its franchisee has defiantly refused to abate problems related to drug trafficking and other public nuisances. The McDonald's location "has generated nearly 1,100 calls for service" to the San Francisco Police Department since January 2012, according to Herrera's letter -- more than any other business in the area. Criminal activity includes arrests for sale and possession of LSD, psychedelic mushrooms, hashish, marijuana, and marijuana edibles as well as dozens of incidents involving fights, assaults, auto burglaries and even two dog attacks.
Herrera expressed "hope to enlist your assistance to resolve the public nuisance conditions" to McDonald's President and CEO, but was unequivocal in his intention to file suit if necessary, both to abate conditions plaguing the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood and to pursue injunctive relief, civil penalties, and attorneys' fees.

Oracle knows talented individuals drive success, and they are willing to encourage positive workforce development through organizations such as BDPA. As such, Oracle made decision to offer the 10th Annual Oracle Scholarship for BDPA Students again this year. The scholarship application period goes through July 15 2018.
These scholarships are available to high school students (grade 12), community college students and undergraduate college students. The student must be studying in STEM-related curriculum. The student must be a BDPA member in good standing on or before the July 15th deadline. BDPA student membership is $25 annually.
Past Oracle scholars were helped by this funding as well as the BDPA programs and services made available to them at the local chapter level. Do you know a high school or college student (or their parents!) who could benefit from this information? If so, please share this message with them right away. Don't procrastinate ... the application is ready and available for immediate download.
Earl Pace and David Wimberly founded BDPA in November 1975 as a local association. Within three years, the founders grew BDPA into a national organization with chapters in Philadelphia, Washington DC and Cleveland. Today, there are 46 chapters throughout the United States. One part of the BDPA legacy is our program for college students and college campuses. This is a program that enriches the opportunities for our students in a variety of post-secondary education institutions with a focus on low-and moderate-income communities.
31% of BDPA’s membership consists of college students. BDPA understands that its educational life cycle moves from the classroom to the boardroom. A major element of the educational life cycle resides with college students. Annual membership dues for college students are only $25 … a significant savings from the annual membership dues that adult professionals invest in BDPA membership.
BDPA established the college student program to teach advanced computer science and community responsibility to students from historically disadvantaged communities. These are major components of our college student program that impact on the educational future of K-12 students:
1. College Scholarships
2. IT Showcase
3. Internships and Entry-Level Jobs in IT Industry
4. Mobile Application Showcase
Most of our 46 local BDPA chapters run programs that provide science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) curriculum and experiences for young people of color in community colleges, 4-year colleges and vocational schools. These training programs include a monthly program meeting hosted by each local chapter that provides remarkable information from industry professionals as well as unique networking opportunities that are not replicated anywhere else in the community.
BDPA seeks to have more students in college studying STEM-related disciplines. BDPA created the BDPA Education and Technology Foundation (BETF) in 1992 for the purpose of giving college scholarships to deserving high school students. Over 250 college scholarships valued at over $550,000 have been handed out by BDPA and BETF. In addition, BDPA created two programs that feature college students - IT Showcase (2003) and Mobile Application Showcase (2014). BDPA began the process to bridge the ‘digital divide’ before the term was widely known. BDPA recognizes that to close the gap of computer and technology literacy, minority youth must participate and compete in today’s digital economy. Otherwise, our youth run the risk of being obsolete in America’s workforce.
The BDPA college student program is intellectually challenging and builds self-esteem through the mastery of applied computer science. We create a foundation for academic and career success.
The purpose of the Eli Lilly and Company Scholarship for BDPA Students is to recognize outstanding minority students, with an interest in information technology, who make significant contributions to society. Applicants must excel academically, show exceptional leadership potential, and make an impact on their communities through service to others.
Lilly/BDPA Scholars will be awarded a one-time $2,500 scholarship that may be used to pursue an information technology focused degree at an accredited four-year college or university of their choice. The Lilly/BDPA scholarship may be used to supplement benefits from the college or university a student plans to attend and fellowships from other foundations or organizations. Students may use the scholarship to cover the cost of tuition, fees, books, room and board, and other college-related expenses.
Scholarship winners will be selected based on the completed application, official transcript, essay, letters of recommendation, and involvement in the BDPA organization.

Trigon Supports the Black Data Processing Associates’ High School Computer Training
Program
By Annette Yates
For the past eight years, Trigon has been a proud supporter of the Black Data Processing
Associates’ (BDPA) computer training program. In addition to supporting the program financially,
the company's employees volunteer with the program. And, prior to the recent growth of the
program, students even used Trigon's computer training labs to develop their skills. Designed to
help Richmond area students in grades 8 - 11 learn more about technology, the BDPA computer
training program covers topics including managing databases, client-server technology, Web
design, operating systems, programming languages, and communication and presentation skills.
In addition to the personal achievement that inevitably results from the positive relationships the
students and volunteers develop, a select group of participants receive $500 scholarships to the
college of their choice. Students commit to attend class every Saturday between March and
August. When the training is complete, five are selected to travel to and compete in the national
BDPA conference. At the national conference the students compete as a team. They must
participate in an oral exam, complete a programming exam and make a formal presentation to a
panel of judges. Each member on the winning team receives an additional $1,000 scholarship.
