First Blog- About Me

       My name is Kurt Backhus and I am junior at Illinois State University. I am twenty years old and my major is Construction Management. I chose this major because I enjoy working in the construction field. My Uncle owns a residential construction company, and after working with him for some time, I decided I wanted to go to school to become a Construction Manager. I love the outdoors and I love music. My favorite band is Widespread Panic, they are "just a good ole' bar band."(JoJo Herman).
