Auburn University has been named as one of only 25 American Concrete Institute Excellent Universities for 2017. The ACI award for university student activities was initiated to recognize universities that have participated in ACI-related programs.

“Our ACI student chapter has excelled in developing unique opportunities for Auburn students to get involved in learning more about concrete,” said ACI student chapter advisor Anton Schindler. “For example, this year our students will compete in a fiber-reinforced concrete bowling ball competition, and in conjunction with the university’s annual student-led service project the Big Event, they will construct a walkway and stair landing for a church in Tuskegee.”

Eight students will be recognized during the ACI spring 2018 Concrete Convention and Exposition in Salt Lake City this March.
