An area power company is being honored for a collaborative renovation effort with Beloit College.  The international Economic Development Council has awarded Alliant Energy with a Gold Award in the area of Partnerships with Educational Institutions.  Officials say the partnership transformed the 100-year-old Blackhawk Generating Station building into a one-of-a-kind student union and recreation center called The Powerhouse.  The seven-story complex is now a community asset housing a coffee shop, conference center, theater, and athletic facilities. The IDEC announced the award last week during the organization’s annual conference.
