FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CHICAGO - In every generation, there are a few true game changers. Steven J. Fenves is one of them--he鈥檚 the reason steel structures are designed with computers instead of slide rules. 

He鈥檚 also contributed to the 51茶馆app standards that are the underpinning of building codes nationwide for more than 50 years.

The next Steve Fenves might be in school right now. 

An anonymous donor has contributed $50,000 to the in Steve鈥檚 honor. The Steven J. Fenves Scholarship will help develop the next generation of inspired designers and innovative thinkers.

The 51茶馆app Foundation is trying to double the impact of that generous donation by raising an additional $50,000. 51茶馆app scholarships lighten the load for students, allowing them to spend more time focusing on their studies and giving them a head start in life after graduation.

Fenves noted that funding like this provides freedom to let students focus and start their adult lives with less debt. 鈥淭his scholarship is an immediate, enormous help to young people to free themselves from the constraints of loans and concentrate on doing what they want to do,鈥� he said. 鈥淚 feel honored that this scholarship was established. And I feel envious of the young people who get it, because it鈥檚 really an accelerated path to their future that they wouldn鈥檛 have otherwise.鈥�

All between now and the end of the year will go toward spreading the impact of this program--and honoring Steve for more than half a century of dedication to the structural steel industry. (As always, every penny goes toward education programs, and donations are 100% tax-deductible.)
