I’m copying Pete Jenior who is the new chair of the Design and Construction Group (DCG) Younger Member Subcommitee.

 

Pete is taking the lead this year and his committee had gone through some extensive rotation in the last year as the charter members rotated off.

 

I attended his committee meeting and there’s tremendous vitality and interest with the new members.  Health and Transportation would be a  nice complement to the Design and Construction Group.

 

I will leave it to you to reach out to Pete as I don’t know who some of you are!   Pete, please follow up as you see fit.  I can provide some other input on the H&T task force.

Subject: [H+T--Friends] listserve for young members?

 

Hi!

 

Thanks again to you both for all your help with YPHT.

 

After the session and much thinking, I think it's best for the group to be part of the H&T Subcommittee. So henceforth it shall be known as, H&T-YMC, the Health and Transportation Subcommittee-- Young Members Committee!  

 

I'm going to put together a steering committee to help form and shape the group. As I mentioned at the subcommittee meeting, I see it having two prongs, one focused on research and involving Young Professionals in TRB-specific activities and the other focused on professionals development and networking, both at TRB and throughout the year.

 

I want to create a list-serve to stay in touch with the people who came to the gathering, and, in the future, to communicate with folks who want to be a part of the group. To that end, is it possible to get a domain like the subcommittee has -- so HT-YMC@chrispy.net, or is that only possible through official TRB channels? If it's too difficult, I can always form a google group, but I thought I'd ask.

 

Thanks again.

 

All the best,

 

Arielle

 

p.s. Carey-- I meant to tell you, I still regularly turn to, and even quote, your dissertation. It has made a tremendous impact on my work on Vision Zero :)
