1xbet sports betting CONSTRUCTION SCIENCE STUDENTS ASSIST RECOVERY EFFORTS IN NEW ORLEANS

MANHATTAN -- Several members of Kansas State University's student chapter of the Associated General Contractors, a group within the College of Engineering, spent their recent spring break in New Orleans, putting their 1xbet sports betting skills to work in hurricane recovery efforts.

The 1xbet sports betting students' participation was through Camp Hope, an abandoned junior high converted into a volunteer center. The camp is staffed by volunteers who accommodate as many as 1,000 college students each week from across the country who come to assist with relief efforts during their spring break. The focus of the trip was to help organizations such as Operation Nehemiah New Orleans and Neighborhood Empowerment Network Association rebuild homes that were devastated by Hurricane Katrina.

Leonel Hernandez, senior in construction science and management, Hooker, Okla., and the chapter's public relations director, helped make the trip possible through his planning and organizing efforts. The chapter also had assistance through donations from industry representatives on the 1xbet sports betting Construction Science and Management Advisory Council. The students were accompanied by their adviser, Ray Buyle, instructor in construction science and management.

The 1xbet sports betting students helped with the building of new homes and the refurbishing of another home damaged by the hurricane. The students also were able to assist in the rebuilding of homes for two elderly couples. The chapter is already making plans to return to New Orleans during spring break 2010.

All students who participated in the projects are 1xbet sports betting and management majors. Along with Hernandez, they included:

Calder Sagan, sophomore, Bucyrus.

1xbet sports betting Greater Kansas City: Alex Lopez, freshman, Lenexa; and James Jensen, senior, Aaron Priddy, sophomore and Keith Schaller, senior, all 1xbet sports betting Overland Park.

1xbet sports betting Manhattan: Bryan Galloway, freshman; Andrew Gerth, senior; and Samantha Puent, junior.

Joseph Correia, senior, and Justin Leatherman, freshman, both of Mulvane; Cody Harms, junior, Scott City; and Matt Dodge, freshman, Topeka.
