00:00:13,011 --> 00:00:18,320
I started off in the liberal arts program and then 
on a spur-of-the-moment decision I jumped into  

2
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:23,060
construction. That spur of the moment decision 
ended up being the best decision I could have made.

3
00:00:33,070 --> 00:00:37,470
She's one of our top students, as many of the 
women are in our program. It's a it's a great  

4
00:00:37,470 --> 00:00:43,710
opportunity for women to go into the construction 
industry as there's a necessity for more women  

5
00:00:43,710 --> 00:00:46,549
and minorities in the business, especially on the 
management side of things.

6
00:00:46,549 --> 00:00:54,810
Oftentimes girls think more steps down the line. If we're in lab I already have a plan to here when some  

7
00:00:54,810 --> 00:00:58,725
of the guys might only have a plan that may be like 
two steps ahead.

8
00:00:58,725 --> 00:01:04,904
I think women bring something to the classroom that is much needed. They bring a new dynamic 

9
00:01:04,904 --> 00:01:08,195
and it's great to see them here and  we hope to see more and more.

10
00:01:08,195 --> 00:01:18,420
Every class that we 
take also has a hands-on lab ,so compared to the other schools that teach construction we actually 
learn the practical aspects of it rather than just ,

11
00:01:18,420 --> 00:01:22,740
you know learn it from a book and assume that we 
know what we're doing.

12
00:01:22,740 --> 00:01:30,810
People don't realize that the construction industry is very much needed in our 
country right now. It's one of the most growing  

13
00:01:30,810 --> 00:01:35,100
professions out there. I personally think this is 
the best school you can go to for construction!
