 Outstanding Student Chapter Award Information  

To encourage participation in the Southern District competition and to further recognize the work of the student chapters in Tennessee, the Tennessee Section began the Robert Stammer Student Chapter Award in 2003.

Each Student Chapter is to requested to submit a written Annual Report to the Section, pursuant to the requirements, guidelines, and reporting period established by International ITE. Early in the year, International ITE writes each Student Chapter and informs them of these requirements. A copy of the format is provided to each chapter at that time.

Chapters must send and original plus five copies of the written report to the TSITE Career Development Committee Chair by February 1st. This award will be presented to the student chapter who, for the school year, has contributed most to the advancement of the transportation profession and the Tennessee Section. The evaluation criteria are as follow:

  • Frequency and educational value of student chapter meetings (25%)

  • Attendance at student chapter meetings (10%)

  • Attendance at TSITE meetings (10%)

  • Total membership (5%)

  • Number of Scholarship Applications submitted to TSITE (5%)

  • Number of student papers submitted to TSITE (20%)

  • Unique activities performed (25%)

The winning chapter will be presented with a plaque at the Summer Meeting and will represent Tennessee at the Southern District's Temple Scholarship Challenge.

TSITE will forward all submissions to the Southern District for judging against other southeastern chapters. The District provides $100 to each Chapter that submits an Annual Report and there is a $100 award to the winner and a $50 award to the runner-up chapter.

Submissions should be made by February 1st to:
