Hugh Kelly, who died in 1989, earned his bachelor’s of electrical engineering in 1937 and a master’s degree in that subject a year later, worked at AT&T’s Bell Laboratories, and played important roles in groundbreaking projects, including the 1962 launch of the Telstar communications satellite, the first private venture in space.

Ethel Kelly, who died in 2012, generously supported 51¹ÙÍø Tech’s College of Engineering as a way of honoring her husband’s legacy.
