On Tuesday, April 23, 2024, Montana Tech students were hard at work on their housing projects at Highlands College as part of their education in the construction technology program. Two years ago, Tech secured funding to allow the program to begin constructing houses on their campus, giving students practical experience in a lab setting before they entered the workforce. According to Rich Miller, a construction technology instructor at the school, “The program ties in everything they learn in the classroom. It’s a full immersion experience.”
Braydon Cetraro was seen reflecting on the roof of a construction trailer as he measured and marked wood, cutting batten strips with a sliding compound miter saw on Tuesday, April 23, 2024. Meanwhile, students Jack Gibson, Payton Gonser, Brendan Gallagher and Matthew Larson were busy putting up interior paint in one of the construction housing projects on the same day. Montana Tech student Kevin Hanenburg was also fastening batten strips to one of the projects at Highlands College on April 23rd.
