Ohio University returned to its winning ways in
2005 by collecting (actually, sharing with another school, the University of
Manitoba, but we're not complaining) one of the special awards. This year
it was the Bechtel Award for most innovative approach, and it went to the Task
8 team for the design for a dust control measure. The award consisted of a
sand painting, a traveling trophy, and a check for $1250. Congratulations
to the Task 8 team!

teams share the stage. Allison Tate (third from left) holds OU's
sand painting, and Dave McCandlish (to her left) holds the traveling
trophy. The Manitoba team will hold the trophy for the first half
of the year, and we will have it for the second half. |

shared the award this year with the team from the University of
Manitoba. |
