Real Estate Student Wins Huge Award!!

Shane Spencer, our Sherman Drieseszun Scholarship Recipient of last year, was awarded the "Entrepreneurial Student of the Year" at the 26th annual awards banquet this month.
Shane's advanced real estate education in addition to his entrepreneurial studies enabled him to create the "Green REIT" for energy oriented real estate investments. Shane has secured a quarter of a million dollars in venture capital funding to go public as soon as he secures one more IRS ruling on the offering memorandum.
Shane took every real estate class we offered and was a serious student. He also participated in the ULI Gerald D. Hines national competition earlier this year in collaboration with Kansas State's Architectural program. While we didn't get the "grand prize" for the Hines competiton, the participation itself was an invaluable experience.
Congratulations to Shane on his rapid journey to becoming a millionaire.
