In Memoriam:
The Osprey community lost a beloved member of its family last month, Dr. James Sorce, construction management assistant professor. A scholarship fund has been set up in his honor.

From the obituary for Dr. James Sorce:
James attended the University of North Florida where he became an active member in the Sigma Chi Fraternity and graduated in 1998. He later attained his Ph.D. in Building Construction Management from the University of Florida. James spent the last 15 years advising and teaching for the Construction Management Department in the College of Computing, Engineering and Construction at the University of North Florida. He had a passion for his students and his work. He was chosen as Construction Management faculty of the year for 2006, 2007, 2008 and had been nominated as UNF advisor of the year three times. He was an avid UNF sports fan and a loyal supporter of UNF men's basketball. Read the full memorial online.
