Robert Caspari Scholarship

In April of 1999, AGC of Greater Milwaukee created the Bob Caspari Scholarship fund to honor one of the construction industry's most dedicated, hardworking and generally good-natured individuals our association has had the pleasure to call a member.

Robert Caspari served as the Labor Bargaining Czar for almost 20 years. His name was almost synonymous with collective bargaining. Bob worked his way through the Marquette School of Engineering, courtesy of a bricklayer's apprenticeship with Dahlman Construction. He rose through the company and died of cancer of 1998, as Chairman emeritus of the company.

After passing away late in 1998, the AGC of Greater Milwaukee Education & Research Foundation was looking for a fitting way to recognize an individual who had done so much to help others. They chose a scholarship fund and anchored the $20,000 goal with a commitment of $5,000. This ongoing scholarship fund will provide students from Marquette University $1,000 to pursue disciplines in the construction industry. If you would like to show your support in memory of Bob Caspari, please make your checks payable to the AGC-GM Foundation in care of the Bob Caspari Scholarship fund. For additional information, please contact Gert Grohmann at the AGC-GM offices at 414-778-4100.
