MOBILE, Alabama — Bishop State Community College will upgrade math and science facilities with a $25,000 grant from BP PLC. Bishop State President James Lowe said the school formed a relationship with the company while he was on the governor’s task force for cleanup related to last year’s oil spill. The spill occurred last year on April 20 when the Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded. Lowe said BP officials came to the Mobile college for a tour, and he “shared with them that we needed some improvements,” especially to math and Lowe said he explained that the college has been forced to work with lean budgets because of proration, across-the-board state cuts. BP, he said, offered to help and came up with the $25,000 figure. Lowe said a purchase list is being prepared by the division of math and science chairman, and will include math technology, microscopes and computers.
