The “Introduction to Construction Management” course offered by the Haskell & Irene Lemon Division of Construction Science requires students to spend four hours doing community service related to the built environment, but students Daniel Nieto, Agustin Trujillo and Christian Sanroman decided that an afternoon working with Habitat for Humanity wasn’t enough. These students salvaged some materials and built a shelter for a homeless man in their community. Well done, all!
