ST. LOUIS - The American Society of Concrete Contractors has awarded its first three scholarships to Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) students in the Concrete Industry Management (CIM) program. The recipients are Devin Leach, Damon Pulliam and Amanda Reece, all from Tennessee. The students will receive $5000 each and have their attendance paid to the 2009 ASCC Annual Conference.

To qualify for the scholarship, a student must be enrolled full time at MTSU, have a concentration in concrete contracting, and maintain a minimum 2.5 GPA.

The ASCC Foundation was created in 1989 to fund education and research that advances the quality and productivity of concrete construction. The Foundation has also pledged $125,000 to the National Steering Committee of the CIM program.
