A 1978 Chevrolet Corvette, acquired by Ken Goodrich, Chairman of Goettl Air Conditioning & Plumbing, at the Barrett-Jackson Auction in Las Vegas, has arrived at the College of Southern Nevada’s North Las Vegas Campus. The vehicle will be used as a restoration project for students who will apply their skills to refurbish the classic car. Once restored, the Corvette is planned to return to the Barrett-Jackson Auction with all proceeds going to benefit CSN’s programs.

With this initiative, CSN students are expected to gain valuable experience in automotive technology. This project highlights how innovation and education are central at CSN.
