Edwards prof wins award for Iraq work


Charles W. “Chick” Keller, assistant professor of engineering management at KU’s Edwards Campus, recently received the Joint Civilian Service Commendation Award from the Secretary of the Army for his work in Iraq from May through November 2004.


During his time overseas, Keller oversaw a $12 billion construction effort to rebuild critical Iraqi infrastructure under combat conditions. As deputy director of the Programs, Project and Contracting Office in Baghdad, Keller directed electrical, water, education, oil and public building projects.


In presenting the award, Maj. Gen. Daniel E. Long said the projects represent the largest infrastructure rebuilding since World War II.
