ITE District 1 Considering Name Change...
Much like our Midwestern District in the last couple of years, ITE District 1 is considering a name change. District Director Kim Hazarvartian says the District Executive Board is talking about changing its name from District 1 to Northeastern District. The District incorporates the New York Upstate Section, The Meotrpolitan Section of New York and New Jersey, and the New England Section. Their executive board questioned whether they needed to have a vote of their membership to approve the name change.


This is the latest in the trend of districts rebranding themselves by their geographic area. One look at the ITE website under "ITE Chapters" shows a map that identifies each of the 10 districts by their new geographic monikers.
