Waldrop’s Bill Caldwell Honored by Clemson

by GroundBreak Staff on February 27, 2017

Bill Caldwell was recently inducted into Clemson’s Hall of Fame

Clemson University’s Construction Science and Management Department recently honored Bill Caldwell, President and CEO of Spartanburg-based Waldrop Mechanical Services, with the 2017 Construction Hall of Fame Award.  Caldwell received the award  at the department’s spring Industry Advisory Board meeting on February 9 at the University’s Madren Conference Center.

The Construction Hall of Fame Award recognizes the accomplishments of those who have distinguished themselves throughout their careers in construction. Selection criteria includes demonstrated leadership in the construction industry, community involvement, and support for Clemson’s Construction Science and Management program.

“Being inducted into the Construction Hall of Fame by industry peers, the department’s Industry Advisory Board, and the school’s faculty is indeed a humbling experience — especially considering the esteemed list of previous winners,” said Caldwell. “To be recognized for making a positive difference to the industry, and for having an impact on the education of tomorrow’s workforce, is an acknowledgement for which I will be forever proud.”

Caldwell has been actively involved with Clemson’s Construction Science and Management Department over the past 10 years. Currently he serves on the department’s Industry Advisory Board and is the Corporate Partner representative on the Board’s Executive Committee. Caldwell regularly speaks to industry and student groups throughout the Carolinas about the construction industry. He is a strong advocate for workforce development, partnering with industry associations and public schools to promote construction trades as a viable career option.
