Ed Welch

Edwin L. Welch Jr., president of I.L. Long Construction Company in Winston-Salem, was made an honorary alumnus of the College of Engineering at NC State at the spring scholarship banquet in April 2002.  This is the first time anyone has been honored in this way by the College of Engineering.

Welch is a long-time supporter of the College of Engineering.  He devotes his time to the College as an Engineering Foundation Board member.  In 1996 he endowed a scholarship in memory of his father, Edwin L. Welch Sr., and over the years he has made generous donations to the College in support of scholarships and in unrestricted funds.
