In August 2026, SEU welcomed back Bruce Brothersen, PE, SE, from Vulcraft, and Walter Worthley, PE, SE, from SEQ Engineers, to present Evaluation, Modification, Retrofit: Steel Joists, Roof, and Floors. In 2019, Bruce and Walt designated St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital (https://www.stjude.org/) for one of the SEU Speaker Inspires donations for this month, and they have chosen to do the same in 2026.
Walt shared: “The St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital continues to provide exceptional care for children with cancer. Their work in helping patients and families deal with this disease, as well as help to find cures, continues to be an inspiration to every life they touch.”
Thank you, Bruce and Walt, for helping structural engineers with your SEU session, and for your designation of the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital as one of our SEU Speaker Inspires Organizations of the Month!
SEU began the SEU Speaker Inspires program in 2015 as a way to “pay it forward”, enabling our speakers to designate a charity/organization of their choice for SEU to make a donation to help improve our world.
