The Tri-Force welcomes you to this year’s inaugural Drive By “ITP 101” with Spike McCue.
For all the new arrivals… (first years) who are trying to figure what they just signed on for and the rest of us (second years) still trying to figure out what we signed on for.

The “ITP 101” Drive By is where we cover all the FAQs related to ITP as well as answer any ITP related FUQs (frequently unanswered questions… more general fuqks will not be answered)

This is your chance, whether you are a 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or persistent degree seeker of a higher order, to come and find answers… as well as provide answers. We will cover basic ops like the ITP shop, student programs and clubs, as well as give our hard earned advice on what you can and cannot get away with at ITP 😉
