Changes

MPowered Entrepreneurship and 1000 Pitches have a very positive impact on the University of Michigan campus. In just their first semester (Fall 2007), MPowered held its own career fair, secured a community of over 700 students and built strong relationships with supporting faculty, alumni, and business leaders ([http://1000pitches.com/content/about http://1000pitches.com/content/about])<span style="font-size: 12px;">. University of Michigan's MPowered Entrepreneurship student group is continually signing up new members each semester. It also has a large impact on the student body around the week of the competition. Students all over campus take pride in wearing "1KP" shirts, which also aids in promoting the organization and competition. 1KP places "Pitch Stations" across campus to give out merchandies to students who have previously entered or need information on how to pitch, which works great as a source of information. The 1000 Pitches event is still in the early stages for Penn State.</span>
