TCM Fall 2010 Tailgate/Dept. BBQ

Shawn Strong — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 14:10:40 +0000

If you didn’t know it TCM takes the football season very seriously… Meet the faculty and network with students at the department social/tailgate on Sept. 2, anytime after 3pm until gametime at 6pm at Bearfest Village (South of the stadium). Equally important is showing support for your fellow classmates/football team. We have a number of players on the team, last night you might have heard Waylon Richardet on the JOCK 98.7 give a great interview mentioning Construction Management. You might know preseason All-American David Arkin (Construction Management major), starting linebacker Adam Beauchamp (Construction Management major), kicker Jason Bromley (Construction Management major), defensive end Chris Current (Construction Management major), cornerback Darius Blow (Construction Management major), or tackle Philip Terhaar (Construction Management major).

Show support for the team, meet the faculty and fellow majors, and have some free food! New majors, if you haven’t seen the tailgating trailer it is a must see. The event is sponsored by Archer Western Construction (they will be in attendance as well).
