2009 MITEy Race: Student Scholarship Program
Saturday, May 2, 2009
Think you know San Francisco? ... think again!
The 2009 ITE SF Bay Area Student Scholarship Program will feature a MITEy Race inspired by the Amazing Race. Teams of students and professionals will compete in a day-long contest to test their teamwork and skills in using the Bay Area's transportation system.
Cost for ITE Professionals: $40 per person, $150 per 4-person team. Students are sponsored by the ITE SF Bay Area Section and will compete free of charge.
Only 20 teams will be able to compete. All entries will be considered on a first-come, first-served basis.
The fee includes a goody bag, transportation, lunch, and a ticket for the Happy Hour Event at the conclusion of the MITEy Race on Saturday evening, May 2.
To participate, send an e-mail of intent to Patty Camacho (mpc@dksassociates.com). Additional details and application materials will be sent once your entry is confirmed.
Student participants will be eligible to win scholarships and travel assistance to the 2009 Annual Meeting in Denver, Colorado.

The 2007-08 school year is in full swing. ITE is here for the students, with scholarships, the STEP mentoring program, discounted (or free) attendance at our regular meetings, free pizza/sandwiches with presentations on transportation topics at local universities, and financial assistance for students to the Annual District 6 Meeting. |
Every year students attending the District Meeting get the chance to network with transportation professionals and students from the Western portion of the United States (District 6). The 2008 District meeting in Anaheim will be even more exciting, as it will double as the Annual Meeting of ITE International. This will enable students to network with transportation professionals from all over the world.
If you are a student and would like ITE to make a visit to your school, please contact the ITE student liaison for your area. We also have a page to help students and employers find CAREER FAIRS coming to local universities.
