Mike Lenett was a professional engineer in Ohio and Kentucky. He was a member of several engineering societies
including The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) and the Association of Bridge Construction and
Design where he was instrumental in helping start the Southwest Chapter. Mike was frequently invited to speak at
engineering conferences around the country. Mike was a man of deep and redounding dedication. In both his
professional and personal life, he was committed to living beyond himself. Mike passed away in September 2020
and this scholarship is in memory of Mike and all he provided to the bridge industry.
