What's Going on in Classes

CM 121: On Tuesday we will be discussing how to determine the productivity of equipment (important for determining the duration and cost of equipment). On Thursday, we'll start talking about site work. Lab this week will include determining the most effective methods for concrete placement for the S.O.G. and walls you performed QTOs on last week.

CM124 Lab: I think we're going on a site visit to McKinley Village. Gareth will give more details on Monday, but be prepared for a site visit (boots, PPE and the tools for taking notes).

CM 126: A busy but awesome week. On Monday we're going to cram delivery methods and contracts into a single lecture period, so be prepared to cover a ton of material. On Wednesday, Andy Kirby, a PX with C.W. Driver will be making a guest lecture. I'm not sure what the topic is yet, but Andy did an awesome job last year, so I assume this year will be just as good, if not better. Andy in the past has showed interest in hiring from Sac State, so this is a good chance for you to learn more about C.W. Driver.
