The Jeremy C. Thurston ’00 Center for Career Readiness, located in Utica’s Hubbard Hall, “represents Jeremy’s personal commitment to helping Utica students succeed.”
On May 12, 2022, Utica University officially dedicated the Jeremy C. Thurston ’00 Center for Career Readiness. The Center, formerly the Center for Career and Professional Development, serves students, in partnership with alumni, employers, faculty, and staff, through coaching, assessments, programming, campus employment, outreach, and recruitment activities.
The Thurston name is familiar to members of the Utica University community: In 2018, the University dedicated Thurston Hall, the state-of-the-art home for Utica’s Construction Management program and a project made possible by lead donor and 1968 alumnus Gary Thurston, Jeremy’s father.
Jeremy, a class of 2000 graduate and current president of the Hayner Hoyt Construction Group, has been an active member of the Utica alumni community and a generous donor to the University for decades, noted Provost Todd Pfannestiel at the dedication ceremony, which was attended by members of the Thurston family, including Jeremy and his wife, Carrie (pictured).
Most recently, he recently helped establish The Hayner Hoyt Corporation Construction Management Scholarship at Utica University, which will provide $5,000 annually to a Construction Management student, with preference given to female students and those from historically under-represented communities.
“Just like his father before him, Jeremy Thurston has been an integral part of Utica University’s growth and expansion for many years. A longtime champion of our Construction Management program, Jeremy has been instrumental in the program’s success and, more important, in the success of its alumni,” Pfannestiel said.
The Jeremy C. Thurston ’00 Center for Career Readiness, located in Utica’s Hubbard Hall, “represents Jeremy’s personal commitment to helping Utica students succeed.”
