rated immediately upon receipt. The FHWA's Office of Human Resources will work 
with the U.S. DOT sponsoring Offices to select the final number of assignments 
and participants based on the availability of funding for the program, and to 
include a wide variety of Transportation-related disciplines. Primarily, 
students selected to participate in the 2010 STIPDG will be assigned to a 
Mentor and project based on their areas of interest and/or majors. Where 
one-to-one matches cannot be made, applicants may be offered assignments "not 
directly related" to their majors. The FHWA's Office of Human Resources will 
notify all students of their status in writing via e-mail confirmations no 
later than May 1, 2010. Students selected for participation will have 
5-business days to reply to the offer e-mails, before the offers may be made to 
other qualified applicants.
(F) About the 2010 STIPDG PROGRAM EXPERIENCE: MANAGEMENT/BENEFITS
In its 19th year, the 2010 Summer Transportation Internship Program for Diverse 
is a critical component of the U.S. DOT/FHWA's student recruitment efforts. The 
STIPDG is committed to ensuring a quality experience in transportation. The 
program is unique because of the many program benefits and features that are 
listed below.
2010 STIPDG PARTICIPANTS' BENEFITS

 *   2010 STIPDG Stipends: Since the STIPDG experience is a special training 
opportunity and not a Federal job, participants do not receive annual or sick 
leave or other Federal Government benefits during their 10 weeks. As mentioned 
above, students are not Federal employees and become employees of the 
Contractor selected to manage the daily activities. Law and Graduate 
Participants will receive a total stipend not-to exceed $5000, and 
Undergraduate participants will receive a total stipend not- to-exceed $4000, 
for their 10 weeks. The bi-weekly stipends are subject to taxation in 
accordance with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and are distributed via the 
payroll account of the Contractor selected to manage the daily activities of 
the 2010 STIPDG. The Contractor also will be responsible for forwarding a W-4 
and I-9 to all STIPDG 2010 participants for that tax year.
 *   2010 STIPDG Housing: During the program, participants will reside in 
housing procured by the Contractor. The Contractor is responsible for 
coordinating and paying for all housing for STIPDG 2010 participants. The 
Contractor, not the student, is responsible for all 2010 STIPDG housing 
arrangements. The Contractor verifies with the FHWA that the housing is decent, 
safe, FEMA-approved, and ADA-compliant and accessible. Housing will be in close 
proximity to the worksites for approved assignments and can include placement 
in the Washington, D.C.. area or throughout the United States. The program only 
provides funding for shared housing for participants accepting assignments more 
than 50 miles (one way) away from their permanent residences. Actual housing 
accommodations will vary by location and can include college/university 
quarters. Housing accommodations can and typically do require shared-living 
arrangements with other interns. Participants may opt not to accept the shared 
housing, but will not be reimbursed by the Contractor, U.S. DOT, FHWA, or other 
participating program office, for housing obtained independently, and without 
the advanced written approval of the Contractor and Office of Human Resources. 
Housing is provided solely for 2010 STIPDG participants and cannot be used for 
non-participants. Participants who fail to honor the STIPDG 2010 housing 
requirements will forfeit all remaining stipends and other related benefits and 
will be immediately removed from the program.
 *   2010 STIPDG Transportation and Related Travel: Through the Contractor, the 
STIPDG 2010 Program pays for all travel and transportation expenses associated 
with relocations for participants whose permanent residence is more than 50 
miles (one way) away from their assignment location. The Contractor, not the 
student, will be responsible for procuring and securing, all primary 
transportation and travel related to the participants' assignments. This 
specifically includes travel expenses to and from the participants' homes to 
their assigned summer assignment locations and back, travel associated with 
approved conferences, workshops, and field trips specific to the assignments, 
and travel associated with closeout activities in Washington, D.C. Again, this 
only applies when the assignment is more than 50 miles (one-way) from the 
participants' residence.
 *   A Special Note Regarding College Credit: Colleges/Universities with 
students selected for the 2010 STIPDG are encouraged to grant three (3) 
academic college credits to the interns upon the completion of the program. 
However, the college or university officials at each institution are the 
authority on final decisions. Students should discuss arrangements with their 
institutions, prior to starting the program.

Q. 6


I am now a senior and will graduate in the Spring of 2010; can I participate in 
the 2010 STIPDG?


A.


Students graduating in the Spring of 2010 may participate, if they have applied 
for and have a letter of acceptance to graduate school for the Fall Term of 
2010. For more details, please refer to Part B, Number (5), titled: 2010 STIPDG 
ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS.

notified of their status in writing via e-mail no later than May 1, 2010.

Q. 9


I have been a STIPDG intern before. Am I eligible to be selected for 
participation again?


A.


Yes, previous interns may apply and are eligible for participation. However, 
previous participants will not be given preferential treatment in the selection 
process.

Participants' Benefits and Responsibilities

Q. 10


Do interns receive compensation? Is STIPDG a paid internship program?


A.


Yes, interns are given assignments that require them to work a standard 40-hour 
workweek for the 10-week program for which they are compensated with a 
bi-weekly stipend. Undergraduate students receive a total stipend of $4,000. 
Graduate and Law students receive total stipends of $5,000. Standard local, 
state, and Federal deductions will be taken based on exemption information 
provided by the interns. Since the participants become employees of the 
Contractor selected to mange the daily activities of the 2010 STIPDG, all 
bi-weekly payments will be paid via the Contractor's payroll system, and not 
that of the Federal Government. All deposits will be made as direct-deposits to 
the participant's preferred banking institution, if proper paperwork is 
provided.


Q. 11


I am a senior and have been accepted to graduate school for the Fall term. If I 
am accepted into the 2010 STIPDG program and participate this summer, will I 
qualify for the stipend for Graduate Students?


A.


If you are an Undergraduate student at the time of your application, you will 
be considered for an assignment at the undergraduate level and will receive the 
stipend level paid to undergraduate interns. Only matriculating Graduate 
students will receive the graduate level stipend.


Q. 12


Will I be considered a government employee during my internship?


A.


No, 2010 STIPDG participants are not Federal Government employees, nor will 
they receive Government benefits during their 10-week internship. They will be 
employees of the Contractor selected to manage this program for the Department 
of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration.


Q. 13


What is the normal work schedule and location?


A.


Work schedules are typically forty hours per week, comprised of eight hour days 
worked Monday through Friday. However, interns and Mentors may agree to modify 
the schedule to suit the work assignment. The work location is typically in a 
U.S. Department of Transportation modal administration in Washington, D.C. 
(Headquarters), or at a participating field location with the U.S. Territory. 
The work site may also include a State DOT office or partnering organizations. 
All assignments require a mentor employed by the Federal Government, 
particularly, the U.S. DOT or a U.S. DOT Operating Administration.


Q. 14


How is a placement site determined?


A.


Assignment location is based on numerous factors, the most important being the 
applicant's major, preference for a particular U.S. DOT Operating 
Administration, and to an extent, geographic preference. STIPDG program 
officials attempt to match these preferences with available assignments based 
upon further consideration of the applicant's skills, background (like courses 
taken in a particular area of study), and interests. Critical Point: Submission 
of all "Required Information" will ensure the immediate review and rating of 
your application. Delays in submitting the required information/documentation 
will further delay the Selection Panel's ability to rate, review, and refer 
your application to sponsoring U.S. DOT offices that may be interested in 
someone with your major/s and interest/s.


Q. 15


Does a STIPDG internship qualify me for college credit at my college or 
university? How do I go about arranging to get credit for my assignment?


A.


The colleges and universities attended by participating interns are encouraged 
to grant academic credit to interns upon completion of the 10-week program. 
However, the college or university officials at each institution are the final 
authority on any decision to do so and students should discuss the granting of 
credit, in advance, with their respective institutions. Institutions may 
contact the STIPDG Program Manager at 202-366-2907 to discuss the specific 
nature of an assignment to assess content and relevance.


Q. 16


What other components are there to STIPDG besides the internship?


A.


In addition to the internship experience, accepted students will also 
participate in an orientation, career development seminars, academic workshops 
(such as position paper writing, civic engagement projects and Legal 
simulations), field trips, a student symposium, closing ceremony events and 
other professional development elements to help students learn more about the 
field of transportation and the federal government.. ; Students will receive 
more specifics in a syllabus and program manual before or during orientation.

Housing, Transportation, and Expenses

Q. 17


Is transportation provided to the assignment location?


A.


Yes, interns living more than 50 miles (one-way) from their assigned location 
will be provided transportation from their residence to the assignment location 
at the beginning of the program. Interns placed in assignments in field offices 
or sites outside of Headquarters will spend the last week of their internship 
in Washington D.C. attending end-of-program activities and will be provided 
transportation from D.C. back to their residence. Interns who choose to drive 
to and from their assignment location at the beginning and end of the program, 
in lieu of airplane fare, will be reimbursed travel costs for travel in their 
privately owned vehicle. Daily transportation to-and-from the internship 
worksite, will be the responsibility of all interns. ; Adequate public 
transportation access is always considered by the Contractor prior to selecting 
housing accommodations.


Q. 18


Is housing provided?


A.


Yes, interns who live more than 50 miles (one-way) from their assignment 
location will be provided housing. In locations where there are multiple 
assignments, interns will be asked to share housing with one or two roommates. 
Participants are housed with participants of the same gender. They share living 
quarters in a lodging based on Government-approved standards for housing.


Q. 19


May I choose to secure my own housing and have the STIPDG program reimburse me 
for my housing costs?


A.


Interns may secure their own housing. However, interns wishing to use or choose 
their own housing will not be reimbursed or provided a housing allowance by any 
component of the 2010 STIPDG.


Q. 20


If I drive my car to my STIPDG assignment, and I am asked to use my privately 
owned vehicle while performing my assignment, can I be reimbursed for expenses 
associated with my assignment?


A.


Yes, if you use your own vehicle while performing duties of your STIPDG 
assignment, you will be reimbursed for mileage, tolls and parking. However, you 
must have written approval in advance of the STIPDG Contractor and the U.S. 
DOT/FHWA STIPDG Program Manager. The Mentor will be consulted for such 
occurrences.


Q. 21


I have a family member or friend coming to visit; may they stay in the housing 
provided by the 2010 STIPDG Program?


A.


No. STIPDG housing is provided solely for STIPDG participants and cannot be 
used for non-participants. Participants who do not respect this rule will be 
asked to leave the program immediately and will forfeit all remaining stipends 
and other tangible and non-tangible benefits associated with the program.

“Determination creates opportunities, resulting in success”

 .........TE Couey











  Hello Everyone!

  See the below information regarding jobs for youth whom are 16 and up.
  Please pass it on. Considering the declining economy...
  Employment may not be a bad idea for some children.

  The Office of Human Resources has posted the below vacancy announcements for 
the 2010 HUD Student Summer Employment Program.  One announcement is
  for the Washington D.C. metropolitan area and the other announcement is for 
throughout the nation.  The announcement opened December 22, 2008 and
  closes April 1, 2010. Even though FHEO has not made a determination as to the 
number of summer students we may be able to hire, I would suggest
  that if you know of any students who may be interested in working at HUD that 
you forward him/her the announcement so that they can apply.

  * Please note that even though the announcement closes April 1, 2010,
  there are three cut-off periods with the first one ending February 1, 2010.
  If HR receives sufficient applications during this period, they may close the 
announcement at that time.

  Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

"It is never easy to demand the most from ourselves, from our lives, from our 
work. To encourage excellence is to go beyond the encouraged mediocrity of our 
society. But giving in to the fear of feeling and working to capacity is a 
luxury only the unintentional can afford, and the unintentional are those who 
do not wish to guide their own destinies." - Audre Lorde
