The third generation of his family to attend the University, he earned a bachelor's degree at both SU and SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry. As president and a member of the fifth generation of the family-owned Hueber-Breuer Construction Co. Inc., he believes Syracuse is the perfect community in which to build a business, make a li ving, and establish deep, long-lasting roots. Fo r Breuer, serving on SU's Board of Trustees is a measure of his commitment and gratitude to the University as w ell as the city. "Cathy and I both feel that our educational experiences at SU and the friendships we made there have influenced our lives in many ways," he says. "We also appreciate the positive impact the University has had on our community. So we like to give back to SU in w hatever ways w e can." Founded in 1880, Breuer's company recently celebrated 125 years of providing construction services to Central New York. The company is responsible for several SU facilities, including Maxwell Hall, Eggers Hall, the new Whitman School of Management building, the Winnick Hillel Center for Jew ish Life, Goldstein Student Center, the Place of Remembrance, and the Orange Grove. Other local landmarks constructed by Hueber-Breuer include hospitals, assisted living residences, educational facilities, churches, firehouses, and hotels. Breuer is also an investor in many area commercial office buildings, distribution facilities, and the Syracuse Crunch professional hockey team. "You have to have an interest in creating something to succeed in this business," says Breuer, w hose sons Andy and Charlie are now invol ved in the company. "I drive by a project we've constructed and feel a certain ownership. It is rewarding to see our clients succeed in their new facilities. That's w hat keeps me going." A four-year member of SU 's crew team, Breuer was named a LetterWinner of Distinction in 1995. His professional and ci vic interests have led him to serve on the board of the Onondaga County Industrial Development Agency and as chair of the Dow ntow n Committee of Syracuse, and to involvement w ith St. Joseph's Hospital Health Center; Loretto, a nonprofit provider of eldercare in Central New York; and Syracuse Stage, among other organizations. "To me, Syracuse is a unique area," he sa ys. "M y family and I feel fortunate to be part of this community, and it's important to us to share our experience and get invol ved in w ays that have a positiveimpact." -Amy Speach
