Tug Juday Honored Posthumously With Lifetime Philanthropy Award

Nicolet Area Technical College

Long-time Nicolet College Foundation donor E.T. "Tug" Juday has been honored with the Outstanding Lifetime Philanthropy Award from the Association of Fundraising Professionals, Northeast chapter.

Nicolet College Foundation Executive Director Heather Schallock nominated Juday for the award. He received the honor posthumously, having passed away in March, 2013.

Schallock says Tug Juday's contributions continue to impact students at Nicolet..

"..Part of the reason I wanted to nominate Tug was because of the profound and major impact he had and continues to have on our students and really the college and Foundation. It's amazing the impact he's had and continues to have. The funds he established allow the Nicolet College Foundation to help students any time. "

Schallock says those funds are available to students even if they missed the traditional time to apply. Schallock says the donations funded student scholarships at Nicolet to cover not only tuition and books, but also items like vehicle repairs, gas and childcare.

Juday graduated from Northland Pines High School in 1936 and later earned a business degree from the University of Wisconsin. He served in World War II, later returning to the family business Ideal Industries, from which he retired as chairman of the board after 37 years.
