On May 10, 2011 Construction Management-Carpentry students traveled to Jacksonville to work on an Athens County Habitat for Humanity home. The group of 20 second-year students spent the day installing roof trusses on the project. Two of the current Construction Management students, Seth Carpenter and Steven Peters, are voluntarily co-managing the project for Habitat.
The newly revived relationship between Hocking College's Construction Management-Carpentry program and Habitat for Humanity is a "win-win" experience. The students learn the challenges and rewards of project management on a first-hand basis, and Habitat benefits from a more organized, efficient project.
Plans are already developing for next year's Habitat project that will be constructed in Nelsonville.
