We each have a different story. But we all will Ignite Inspiration.

Throughout MITES, I figured out that we all have stories to tell. They come out in personal statements, family meetings, and late night confessions. As we learned more and more about each other in the MITES 2012 class, we grew as a class, a community, and as a family. Since our motto this year was "Igniting Inspiration" I would like to dedicate this blog to our stories and how we are shaping them after participating in MITES this summer. Some of us will actively try to Ignite the Inspiration that pushes us every day to our friends. Some to family. Hopefully, we will all spread the Inspiration throughout our communities. Using our newfound confidence after going through so much during those 6 weeks, I think we will ultimately touch our respective communities and change the outlook and attitudes toward success, STEM, community, personal responsibility, and leadership. Follow us along in this journey.
