2004 MID-YEAR BOARD MEETING SUMMARY
- Award $1,000 to the Washington Section for student initiatives in recognition of the sections outstanding efforts in hosting the successful (technically and financially) 2003 Joint District 6/International Annual Meeting in August.
- Fund an annual request for proposals of student chapters for developing the Annual James H. Kell Student Competition format, to the level of $1,500 of travel costs to the District 6 Annual Meeting. This year the University of Idaho has been awarded $1,500 for developing and delivering the remote control car traffic signal timing competition for this year's Sacramento District 6 Annual Meeting and their volunteer efforts to support the 2003 Annual Meeting in Seattle. The student chapter that wins this award waives their ability to participate in the Annual James H. Kell Student Competition which awards $1,000 to the winning group of students.
- Fund a Data Collection Program aimed at providing funds for student chapters for travel to the District's Annual Meeting and developing mentoring relationships with retired ITE members. This program will fund $1,000 to $2,000 grants through a request for proposals to be issued March 1, up to a maximum of $5,000. The proposals will be due April 1 and the awards made April 15 with the data collection efforts completed by mid-June 2004. More details about this program will be available on this web site later in February.
