Kirkland Mayor Jim Lauinger presented a group of Northwest University students with a public service award at the City Council’s June 3 meeting in recognition of the many hours the students spent designing and editing public service advertisement videos for Kirkland’s Green Building Program. Groups of students worked on the one-minute videos as an assignment for a mass communications course.

Seven groups produced video ads, and a panel of Kirkland City employees voted for the top two finalists to be shown on KGOV 21, Kirkland’s cable television station.

The “Green” teams included: Everette Adams, Nathan Jaber, Nick LeFors, Jessica West, Katie Hauenstein, Laura Lewkowski, Shauna Marshall and Brandon Screen.
