Ten Enter 2007 ¼ Scale Web Site Design Contest

The seventh annual ASABE ¼ Scale Web Site Design Competition once again gave teams entered in the 2007 competition a creative way to showcase their talents on Net.

Ten universities from across the U.S. entered the contest and took advantage of the opportunity to promote their team, the competition and ASABE, but the University of Illinois took top honors with their innovative Web site design. Rounding out the top three winners were Iowa State University in second place with the University of Wisconsin - Madison taking third.
