Those who joined Hintz for the Thursday afternoon work detail are David M. Collazo, a building construction technology student from Monroe Township, New Jersey; Madison L. Kistler, of Kutztown, graduating next month in surveying technology (and staying on for additional degrees); Stephen K. Lee, of Bethlehem, enrolled in residential construction technology and management; and Harrison Wohlfarth, a concrete science technology major and building construction technology alumnus from Midlothian, Virginia. "What a great opportunity to link the college’s commitment to community connection and real-world classroom activities ... and to have the students' names permanently displayed side-by-side with those of war heroes who have given the supreme sacrifice," Hintz said. "The veterans group's actions have touched my heart in a way that I can’t even describe, and I am truly humbled by the goodness that this cooperative college effort has produced."
