Glenn Department of Civil Engineering graduate student James Roberts was recognized with the SKA Educational Initiative Award and awarded an all-expenses paid trip from the Kennerly Education Initiative (KEI) to attend the American Concrete Institute’s 2024 Spring Convention in New Orleans. James is a graduate student involved in concrete repair materials research with Professor Prasad Rangaraju.
SKA Consulting Engineers established the Robert G. (Bob) and Virginia S. (Sue) Kennerly Education Initiative in 2022 to commemorate Bob’s and Sue’s selfless dedication to shaping the minds of young engineers, and in recognition of their integrity and passion that has inspired generations. His legacy of quality and innovative professional engineering service, mentoring of our engineers, and enduring client relationships has built and maintained our reputation, locally in Greensboro, the Carolinas and Virginia. He gave us the pattern to follow and build on… “Engineering is an Art and a Science.” We love and respect him for his love of engineering, his persistence at finding the right solution, and for his love of family.
We are very proud of James and his accomplishments. Go Tigers!
