Dear members of the Internet2 community,

I want to bring to your attention an event today at which Michigan
Governor John Engler will announce the formation of the Michigan
Information Technology Center (MITC), which will be a showcase for the
development of advanced technologies. Governor Engler has invited
Internet2 and Merit, an Internet2 member, to make their homes in a new
building that will be built through a generous grant from the MITC. The
support the MITC provides will benefit the national Internet2 community.

See the details below to view a live Webcast of the announcement event.

Sincerely,

Douglas Van Houweling
President & CEO
