BART Pittsburg/Bay Point Station

When I first met Jerry in 2002 as the newly arrived CM Department Head at Cal Poly, I remember leaving the meeting and saying to my colleague, ‘There is a true construction professional.’  Since that time, Jerry has continued to be the most direct, most supportive, and most trusted advisor with whom I have worked.  His generous financial support has helped make the new Construction Management Building at Cal Poly a reality and that support will be recognized through the naming of the “Overaa and Watry Fundamentals of Construction Management Lab”.  We look forward to many more years of partnership between Jerry and Cal Poly.
