Like Father, Like Daughter

A summer internship was 18 years in the making for civil engineering student Delaney Rainford.

She spent last summer as a construction intern at The Beck Group, the same firm where her dad, Clyde ('03 B.S., Mechanical Engineering), has worked for more than two decades.

As a child, Rainford tagged along with him. "It would always be so fun to see what he did on his project sites," she said. The Beck Group even issued her an ID badge back then with the "job title" of Daddy's Helper.

"I'm excited to see Delaney here learning from the industry's best," said Clyde Rainford, who is a senior project manager for the firm. "I'm very proud of her."
