Western Nevada College construction students helped to install a wall in the town meeting room to create a new office for the town manager.
Town Manager Jody Brunz said the students worked on the change to the offices on March 15. She said her husband has been working on some of the finishing since.
The college’s construction program received a $50,000 donation from the NV Energy Foundation.
“NV Energy Foundation is a visionary partner for WNC that has repeatedly made donations to help our students and improve their college experience on campus,” said WNC President Dr. J. Kyle Dalpe.
A key part of the donation enabled the Construction Management program to purchase BlueBeam construction software, which is used for PDF markups, digital workflows and project collaboration, according to the college.
Registration for the college, which has a campus in Minden, began Monday at for continuing and returning students through their myWNC accounts.
 New students may start registering April 14.
