Beautiful day to get to work helping with Habitat for Humanity and the Lamar Construction Management students. The group tackled rebuilding a home for a family with great need.

And they're off! Today, our Introduction to Construction Management students paired with Habitat for Humanity of Jefferson County and the Rotary Club of Beaumont to build and restore three homes in Beaumont. Under the supervision of Dr. Mahdi Safa, students will learn real world construction skills and the value of giving back to the community.

Our students perform service projects every semester, but, due to the impact of Hurricane Harvey, this year's efforts come with extra urgency and meaning.

We'll post more photos of this project as the action progresses.
