Starting November 6, SCC Beatrice received a new superintendent of the physical plant, Jeff Corey.
Corey was the man for the job with over twenty years of construction experience.
When asked what made him choose this job, Corey promptly responded, “There are some good people here to work with.”
As superintendent of the physical plant, Corey oversees the Beatrice campus when it comes to maintenance and custodial duties. He also maintains the grounds and does basic upkeep on the school vehicles.
Being born and raised in Beatrice, Corey was never far from the campus. While furthering his education, he took multiple classes in con- struction from SCC Beatrice as well as the University of Nebraska Lincoln.
Corey worked for five years at the Peterson manufacturing plant in Dewitt and another twenty years in construction at Five Star Contracting.
During his time at Five Star, Corey had the opportunity to help build the physical plant as well as multiple remodeling jobs around the campus.
When asked what Corey liked the most about his new job, he answered, “The whole place in general; it’s a really nice place.”
