Sacramento State College of Engineering and Computer Science

We are deeply saddened by the recent passing of our friend and colleague, Matthew Salveson. Matt was not only an incredible engineer but also a passionate educator who was dedicated to shaping the next generation. His role as a teacher inspired countless students, and his engineering expertise left a lasting impact on projects and communities alike. In honor of his dedication and impact, we have established a scholarship fund in his name at Sacramento State University. This scholarship aims to support students in achieving their academic goals, reflecting Matt's commitment to education and community. We invite you to join us in celebrating his legacy by contributing to the scholarship fund. Your generosity will help remove barriers and provide students with the tools they need to succeed—today and well into the future. To donate or learn more about the scholarship, please visit: https://lnkd.in/g7rYchYD Thank you for helping us honor Matt's memory and supporting the next generation of leaders. #WoodRodgers #Engineering #CivilEngineering #Legacy

Lynda Grindstaff enjoyed a more than two-decade career in tech, rising to a vice president at McAfee. Then she walked away from corporate America to focus more on what is important to her: “Helping women and exposing women to opportunities that they may not know about.” #MadeAtSacState
