2009 Outstanding Student Chapter WinnersFor the second year in a row, AGC awarded the student chapter at Boise State University with first prize in the 2009 AGC Outstanding Student Chapter Contest. This contest recognizes the top three student chapters for their remarkable work in the community. Boise State was rewarded for their work overseeing a complex project to relocate one of the oldest Abraham Lincoln statues west of the Mississippi. This project demonstrated excellent skills in estimating and project management. Taking second place, Kansas State University was recognized largely for their work helping to build a memorial in Chapman, Kansas, dedicated to the local victims of a tornado that struck the town in June, 2008. The group brought together over 40 volunteers to invest over 750 man-hours building the memorial park. Awarded third prize, California State University, Chico was commended for their work supporting fire-ravaged Concow, California.
