APAI Members Donate $149,000 to University of Iowa College of Engineering
The Asphalt Paving Association of Iowa presented the University of Iowa College of Engineering with a check for $149,000 yesterday with these funds to be matched by $100,000 from the college. The funds are to go to renovating the existing lab, purchasing new equipment, and building out a teaching lab for asphalt pavement. Professor David Lee said, “I would like to thank all APAI members for the support for the asphalt education at the University of Iowa. Both engineering college dean and CEE department chair are strongly behind this effort. I hope you all can visit new and improved asphalt teaching laboratory at UI this summer.” Bill Rosener, Executive Vice President of the APAI, said, “I am extremely proud and thankful to the members of the APAI for their generosity in not only meeting our goal of raising $100,000 but exceeding it by another 50%. These monies were needed to maintain the high level of facilities and add additional teaching capabilities for the engineering students at the University of Iowa.” The APAI would like to thank and recognize the following donors for their support:
