Engineering Firm Establishes Scholarship at UMaine
Aiming to make it easier for University of Maine students to pursue a career in construction management, the well known Brewer building firm of Nickerson & ODay has established a scholarship in the name of its immediate past president, John F. Jack Kelley III.
Kelley, who led Nickerson & ODay for the past 25 years, helped the company establish a strong reputation for quality construction of schools, nursing homes, churches, hospitals, offices, community centers and commercial buildings throughout the state. Signature projects during his tenure include Hermon High School, Camden Public Library and UMaines Buchanan Alumni House.
Now, thanks to the scholarship, eligible undergraduate students can receive financial help as they earn a bachelors degree in Construction Management Technology and learn to oversee all aspects of civil construction projects.
