MITES-JOURNAL - POST-CONVENTION 2009 1 www.mites.cc - POST-CONVENTION 2009 A Note From The MITES President Marvin Gage The first thing I would like to do is to thank Greg Meyers for providing all of us with a great convention. There were many exceptional sessions offered for the members this year and I hope everyone took full advantage of these sessions. I would also like to thank the presenters for sharing their knowledge with their peers. As most of you should already know, MITES is a completely volunteer organization with no one getting paid a penny. MITES is not the executive board but all of its members combined that makeup this organization.
Like our nation we have many of the same things going on with our organization and its members. Programs are closing and teachers are losing jobs. It doesn’t appear changes are coming soon enough. It’s not the weakest programs being closed or the poorest teachers losing their jobs, many of these programs have been around for a long time. I talked with some of those who received their pink slip this spring and couldn’t help but think about how low my numbers are for next year. With the push for more students taking AP classes and everyone going to college we are being squeezed out of the equation.
The good news is there are some legislators who feel that we are a critical part of the equation. This would not be possible without the hard work of our MITES members who have been working with these legislators. This past year many members have been involved with committees working on IX/TX certification, Industrial Technology Standards, and a bill by Representative Joel Sheltrown, just to mention some of the things going on. These members are all volunteers who give up their time and money to attend these meetings around the state. They are working hard to help keep Industrial Technology programs around for many more years. These moves are not to guarantee any one of us a job in the future but to help guarantee our students a future.
Not everyone can give their time or money to serve on a committee. Some are involved with family, church, or getting ready for retirement. The only thing that can be expected from each of us is to develop and maintain the best program we can to help prepare our students for the 21st Century.
I would like to thank all of you who serve in some capacity with MITES. It’s all the volunteers and dedicated professionals who care about kids and their futures who help make this the GREAT organization it is.

Honorary Life Award Presented by Gene Pierce and Lowell Kage
15 years ago, Lowell Kage decided it was time to reignite the MITES automotive contest. Lowell knew it was time to do this contest yet had little experience in designing and operating an automotive contest. I had the experience in operating a contest yet being new to Michigan; I knew none of the players necessary to make the contest successful. Between the two of us we had enough resources to get the contest going.
The first contest was held in 1996 at Northwestern Michigan College in Traverse City. Five schools and sixteen students were registered. An added feature came in the form of $21,000 in scholarships presented to the students from a school in Ohio. Why would a school in Ohio want to come to a small auto contest in Traverse City?
It was Bill Richardson, an admissions professional at the school who came Lowell Kage (right) presents the Honorary Life to us and said the University of Northwestern Ohio wanted to help out Award plaque to representatives of the University of and assist in making this contest successful and meaningful for students Northwestern Ohio. and instructors. Bill said -I will be at the contest.....let me know what you need.” Lowell and I didn’t even know what to ask for! Bill arrived the day before the contest and assisted with the set up. On the day of the contest, he was there early in the morning and brought a trunk load of snacks for the kids and instructors He talked with students and instructors between grading tests for the contest. He helped with presenting the awards. He stayed until the last components were put away. As we were standing by the cars on our way out he said -This was great. Let’s see what we can do next year to make it even better!”
Since 1996, the University of Northwestern Ohio and their staff have been an integral part of the automotive contest. The scholarships have grown rapidly to approximately $25,000 at this years’ contest. Over the past 14 years approximately $350,000 in scholarships have been offered through the University of Northwestern Ohio to MITES students. The admissions staff promotes the MITES organization and the automotive contest whenever they visit schools throughout Michigan. UNO always comes to the contest with loads of snacks for the kids and numerous door prizes. Over the years they have funded the lunches for all participants.
UNO Staff, Al Emery, Mark Rowell and Bill Richardson are extremely committed to this automotive contest and the students and instructors it serves. They arrived yesterday to assist with setting up the contest. They even brought a semi loaded with a modified race car for the participants to enjoy. Today they were there at 7:00 a.m., brought in snacks, assisted with registration, judged stations, met with instructors and students, paid for chips and cooked hotdogs and burgers, presented scholarships and helped with cleaning up the facility.
THESE GUYS ARE CHAMPIONS! From Dr. Jeffery Jarvis, president of the University of Northwestern Ohio, to Andy O’Neal the Dean of the College of Technologies at the university to our friends Bill, Jim and Al, they are promoters and believers in MITES. For Fourteen years they have promoted the contest, been at the contest, financially support the contest and believed in the contest. For their 14 years of support and assistance we are forever grateful.
It is our pleasure and an honor to recognize the University of Northwestern Ohio as the recipient of the 2009 Michigan Industrial and Technology Education Society Life Time Membership Award.
Accepting the award are University of Northwestern Ohio representatives Al Emery, Bill Richardson and Mark Rowell.

It contains lesson plans, tests, handouts...the works. This free program is a must for anyone who teaches welding. Note: this 9 disk program originally sold for $1,000.00 but Lincoln Electric is giving it away to teachers. This program would be excellent for CTE welding instructors.

AUTOMOTIVE COMPETITION
2009 MITES State Competition – Gold Medal Winners Ninety-five students from automotive technicians training programs competed in the MITES State Auto Contest at the Calhoun County Career Center in Battle Creek Michigan on May 8th. The contests included a written test, as well as hands on performance. Mott High School Senior Adam Smith (left) won first place (gold) in the master tech and earned $45,000 in scholarships. Mott senior Chris Schneider (right) took first place (gold) in the quick service general service and earned $19,000 in scholarships. Their teacher is Chris Bonfiglio (center). The MITES contest is the largest automotive competition in the state.
This was MITES 14th year of the state high school Auto Contest which has grown in the number of participating schools and students every year since our start in Traverse City.
Teachers like Chris Bonifiglio help make the MITES Auto Contest successful. Chris has been teaching for 5 years at Waterford Mott High School. Prior to this, he taught a few years at the Oakland County Vocational Technology Center in Pontiac.
Chris likes our auto contest for many reasons: All students go home with something whether it is a gift from the vendors, ribbons recognizing their place in the competitions or the many scholarships students earn from the sponsoring universities and visiting with fellow auto instructors. All this is due to the support of our technical universities, Michigan high school auto instructors, vendors and the great job Gene Pierce does in putting this auto contest together.
Scholarships are made available from the following technical schools:
University of Northwestern Ohio (UNO) Baran Institute of Technology (BIT) Lincoln College of Technology (LCT) Universal Technical Institute (UTI) Ohio Technical College (OTC)

MITES-JOURNAL - POST-CONVENTION 2009 64 www.mites.cc - POST-CONVENTION 2009 Rules Committee Update______Several changes in the rules layout should make it easier for members to locate and find information. Each Division is on a single page so instructors will be able to print out only the pages they need for the divisions they enter. Also, all the pertinent information for judges is on the first two pages so RAOs can print that information easily.
The most changes occurred in the Woods area with the addition of 3 categories to break up the WO-1 category. These additions are Sporting Goods, Boxes, and Face Plate Mounted Turnings. There were small changes in other areas so once again we encourage all members to read the rules thoroughly.
Registration will be the same as last year. It will open on April 1st and each Region will have its own closing date which will be posted on the website. Registration automatically closes 4 PM EST the day before the specific Region Fair begins.
State and Regional Certificates as well as results will again be available online after the 2010 State Convention.
Check the website for the most up-to-date information. Any changes will be posted there. www.mites.cc
SHIP’S DRAWING At our annual convention the commercial exhibitors each donate a prize or in some cases many prizes for our Ships Drawing. All members that are registered at the convention have their names entered into the drawing. But, you must be present to win. If you won a prize make sure that you have thanked the donating company. These companies are a great assistance in making our convention a success. When you are placing a school or personal order please consider placing that order with one of our commercial exhibitors. You will see their ads/names elsewhere in this Journal. These are as few of the lucky winners:
