The PCI Foundation recently provided $2000 scholarships to three deserving students. Each of these students is either an employee of a firm that is a member of the Precast/ Prestressed Concrete Institute or the child of an employee.
The these scholarships are a small part of what the Foundation does. They are a great example of how the foundation is meeting its goal of developing and attracting high-potential students to productive careers within the industry. The three recipients of the scholarships this year were Benjamin Gedney, Jason Huntsman, and Eric Smith.
Benjamin E. Gedney is the son of Blakeslee Prestress Inc. employee Jeanne C. Gedney. He will be graduated from Norwich University with a Bachelor in Science in Architecture in 2014 and a Masters from the same school in 2015.
Jason A. Huntsman is currently employed as a draftsman for Oldcastle Precast Building Systems. He has worked for the company for 12 years in various positions.
Eric J. Smith, Smith is a full-time employee at Coreslab Structures (Omaha) and is also pursuing his construction management degree. He started out as a general laborer 15 years ago and now works in quality control.
