JEFF COLBY OF CAPE COD HAS BEEN AWARDED THE $2,500 GERALDINE F. LAVIN BREAST CANCER MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP AWARD AT SUFFOLK UNIVERSITY FOR SPRING 2026!
He will complete his Master of Public Administration Program at Suffolk University Sawyer Business School's Institute for Public Service in May.
Jeff, a retired Army Logistics officer and currently Director of Public Works in Yarmouth, served in the same role in Chatham, where he lives with his family. He was recently named Public Works Leader of the Year by the New England Chapter of the American Public Works Association.
Scholarship recipients are selected by a Sawyer School Alumni Board of Directors based on a 300-word statement describing how their lives have been impacted by breast cancer personally or in their immediate family.
Mr. Colby noted that he had witnessed the effects of breast cancer in both family members and friends, as well as its effects on their caregivers.
He commented that, as a resident of Barnstable County, he has closely followed with concern the research of the Silent Spring Institute, which investigates potential environmental factors contributing to Cape Cod’s elevated cancer rates.
The Board sends him many congratulations for this award and for his contributions of public service throughout his career.
