Dear MSU faculty, administrative and career services partners,

Thank you for your assistance in helping us promote our upcoming “Tech 
Tours” on April 11 and 18. Limited space is still available for both 
tours, but since the first tour is now only a week away, we would 
especially appreciate your help reminding any CS and IT students that 
you interact with about next Friday’s event.

The Capital Area IT Council is partnering with MSU Career Services and 
“Linking Lansing and U” to present “Tech Tours”—a unique “live, work, 
play” experience promoting our area’s vast career and community 
offerings to the next generation of IT professionals. Please help us get 
the word out about these upcoming events!

U Town Meets Old Town…

The April 11 “Tech Tour” will feature Lansing’s Old Town--including 
stops at ACD.net, Ciesa Design and Such Video. We’re also working with 
the university to arrange a tour of their IT facilities and learn about 
employment opportunities with MSU. We’ll also be checking out the 
Motorwheel Lofts and Old Town’s distinct social scene.

West Side’s Where Its At…

The April 18 “Tech Tour” will feature Lansing’s West Side. Stops will 
include Liquid Web, Auto-Owners Insurance, and the Michigan Department 
of Information Technology. The tour will loop back around to end 
downtown—where the group will tour the Stadium District project and 
socialize with friends/employers at the Nut House (and since the Lugnuts 
have a home game that night, you can make plans to stay downtown after 
the tour and check out the action at Oldsmobile Park!)

To sign up, email Chris at cknapp at camw.net (be sure to indicate which of 
the tours you are interested in.) Once registration information is 
received, a detailed itinerary with transportation schedule will be 
emailed to participants as confirmation.

Space is limited, so reservations will be handled on a first come, first 
serve basis with preference being given to first time “Tech 
Tourers”—however, in the event demand exceeds availability, all 
additional interested students will be placed on waiting lists for 
future “Tech Tours”.

Thanks,

Chris Knapp
