Our success would not be possible without Webb’s Keystone and Cornerstone Donors; this elite group of Webb family members have made commitments of $2,500,000 or more:
Keystone Donors
The Couch Family
Dr. John C. Couch (Honorary alumnus) was a member of the Campaign Cabinet. John sees the Campaign for Webb as “crucial to allowing Webb to prepare students to understand, utilize and benefit from continuing advances in technology.” John’s nephew, Jon Couch, had a love for boats and boating. He was a successful businessman, a skilled carpenter, aviator, and professional motorcycle racer, as well as an avid yachtsman. As a result of his family’s maritime legacy, Jon left a generous gift for Webb in his estate. Webb’s new academic center was named in honor of the Couch family, in recognition of their extraordinary generosity.
Arthur ‘54 & Marilyn Burr
The Burrs were honorary members of the Campaign for Webb Cabinet.
“…There were many other instances when I was fortunate enough to be in the right place at the right time, but nothing compared to the good fortune of being able to get a great, and free, engineering education at Webb, all thanks to the generosity of William H. Webb.”
Harold “Gerry” F. and Marguerite Lenfest
Gerry Lenfest was an honorary member of the Campaign Cabinet.
“Alumni and friends of Webb should consider the Campaign a call to arms – to enhance the endowment and provide the funds needed to assure future students an education without the burden of tuition.”
Cornerstone Donors
Joseph J. Cuneo ‘57
Joe was Chairman of the Campaign for Webb and led the Campaign Cabinet.
“I truly believe that making an investment in Webb is making an investment in the best, simply put – the best education, the most promising students, and the opportunity to make the greatest industry impact.”

Dr. Peter Van Dyke ’60
Peter is a Trustee Emeritus at Webb Institute.
“Webb taught me engineering skills of approximation and estimation that carried over into other endeavors where I found them extremely useful.”
Alfred M. and Joyce Zeien ’52
Alfred is a William Selkirk Owen Award recipient.
Alfred & Joyce Zeien’s generosity to Webb is best exemplified by the establishment of the Alfred M. Zeien Lecture Series, the Dr. and Mrs. Alfred M. Zeien Student Scholar Endowment, and the Campaign for Webb Cornerstone gift to establish the Alfred ’52 & Joyce Zeien Academic Wing. Alfred’s career culminated in his role as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Gillette (1991-1999). The Zeiens are survived by their three children (Scott, Grey, and Claudia) and five grandchildren.
