Construction Management Students Tout Bachelor's Major, Open House

Thursday, March 22, 2012

Students' outreach/recruitment effort ongoing Senior Kyle S. Baker and junior David S. Price traveled to Wohlsen Construction in Lancaster on Tuesday as part of a continuing outreach effort on behalf of their four-year construction management major. After a project manager explained what construction management is, the Penn College students joined by building construction management instructor Brad M. Martin (who also provided the photo) spoke to about 35 high school juniors and seniors and eight industry mentors about the college and its Construction Management Program. Each high school student was given a packet of information that included a viewbook, program brochure, an ACE scholarship flier, a postcard encouraging attendance at Saturday's Penn College Open House, and an overview of the School of Construction and Design Technologies. Baker and John M. Kriner have made recruitment part of their senior project; this week's visit was part of that initiative.
