Operation ETT (Expose the truth)


Started: July 10, 2008
-------
Mission: To record on going activities at your local ITT campus. This may include audio and/or video surveillance in the classroom, talking to a rep, your program chair, or financial aid.

What you can do: If your attending ITT, just go to your class and record it, post the file on youtube or a sharing site.
If your not attending ITT you can still help. Go to ITT and schedule (or just popin) a meeting with a rep. Make sure you use Fake information, don't let them have your real address or phone # (they will hound you until you die or change your information). Record the conversation with a REP, FFA, Program chair, Dean, and/or director. Post the evidence on youtube or a sharing site like rapidshare, 4shared, or sendspace.

I will Host and Post the top video / audio files here on the site, but will include all of the submissions.

How to do it: Most of the time a modern cellphone will be just fine, for recording video and/or audio, you will need a microsd or some other memory card so you have enough storage space. Most cameras have a voice recorder which is really good and can record hours of audio, video cameras on phones may differ. Photos are great too!
If your having a meeting with a person from the school ask every question you can think of! Look below for some sample questions.

After we have the evidence: Reply here or PM me with a URL of the file(s), i will grab them, view them and put them on the site. Or you can use a video hosting service (youtube and others), then just put the video url in the [video] tags.

Cool idea. Is it legal?

I wonder if asking a rep to give a presentation to a group of people outside of ITT Tech and recording it would work as well.

Or maybe give some sob story - "Can I video this for my friend who's still in the hospital getting his anal warts removed? I want him to sign-up with me next month but I need your help convincing him." Then get his verbal/visual permission to video the tour/sales pitch on the video itself, and position the recording device so he eventually forgets you have it. Maybe Jesse Jackson can offer some advice for us!
The only real students attending ITT Tech are the ones that shouldn't be there.
