Scholarship Spotlight

Greg & Beth Madden

Donors to the Greg and Beth Madden Family Endowed Scholarship

"We are excited to support our PSU alma mater through the Greg and Beth Madden scholarship fund. Although Beth did not attend PSU, we both value our higher education experience, both the knowledge and skills we gained and the friends we made and extracurricular activities we participated in. Our education contributed to our career success, and we are excited to give back to the PSU community and allow students to forego some of the financial burden so that they can access all that PSU offers. Go Viks!"

Holmes Structures

Donor to the Holmes Structures Scholarship

"The students of Maseeh College are driven to give back to our community through the profession of structural engineering. As we tackle major challenges facing Portland—such as providing critically-needed affordable housing, ambitious sustainable solutions, and a better talent pipeline to our industry—we know Vikings are up for the tasks at hand. We’re aligned in our pursuit of excellence through technical innovations that have a positive impact in our region. Through the Holmes scholarship-internship program, we introduce students to professional experiences, facilitate career growth, and jump-start future employment opportunities."

Viking Engineering + Construction

Donor to the Viking Engineering + Construction Scholarship

"At Viking Engineering + Construction, we believe education is the key to opening up new avenues of possibility. Neither of us owners began our respective careers in the construction industry.  For our founder and CEO, Cecil DelaCruz, the high-quality education gained at Maseeh College led initially to a career in the semiconductor industry, and subsequently to the ability to bring that industry's focus on process improvement into the world of construction. For our COO, Jack Kiperman, the broad range of skills gained in the School of Business enabled a transition from a career in the sciences, to one in the business of engineering and construction.

We both believe that the rigorous, process-oriented thinking that is the foundation of education in both schools has always been a key to Viking's continued success, and we are proud to support any effort that serves to continue and enhance the ability of each school to deliver such high-quality education."
