Blue Jay Racing is a student-run design team open to all undergraduate students. The program was founded in 2004. The team competes annually in three international events put on by the Society of Automotive Engineers. Students design, build, and race a single seat off-road vehicle against a total of ~200 teams representing 14 nations and nearly 4,000 young engineers. The award-winning program offers student engineers an educational experience that goes beyond what the classroom can offer. Aside from the technical knowledge gained, the team-based skills learned through such a rigorous endeavor develops leaders well prepared to enter industry and academia. At each competition the team competes in four of six dynamic events (Acceleration, Maneuverability, Rock Crawl, Suspension and Traction, Hill Climb and Sled Pull) as well as three static events (a sales presentation, design presentations and a cost report). To cap off the competition, the team will also race in a grueling four-hour endurance race. Team members learn as much at competition as from designing and building their vehicle throughout the rest of the year. In addition to their own learning it is also important to the team that all members participate. At competition the team is always working, whether repairing their vehicle or planning and preparing for the next days events. With so much to do and so little time every member contributes to the teams success.

The Ninety Nine Restaurant & Pub is headquartered in Woburn, Massachusetts, and has earned a strong reputation as a friendly, comfortable place to gather and enjoy great food and great drink at a terrific price. With the establishment of the Ninety Nine Restaurant & Pub in 1952, founder Charlie Doe created an entirely new niche in the New England hospitality industry – the casual restaurant – long before the appearance of others. The Ninety Nine Restaurant & Pub continues to prosper and grow. The Ninety Nine updates and refines its menu on an ongoing basis to provide guests with fresh new options, yet continues to offer great food and great drink at a terrific price. This philosophy began when the company was founded, and is still maintained today. The culture at the Ninety Nine Restaurant & Pub was instilled by Charlie Doe long before a mission statement was ever written down on paper. But the proclamation means that guests, team members, community and stakeholders are treated with respect. For guests, it means they have a friendly, comfortable place to gather and enjoy great food and great drink at a terrific price. The Ninety Nine is proud to serve more than 20 million customers a year in over 105 restaurants throughout the Northeast. For team members it translates into accommodating work schedules, generous benefits, including 401(k) plans and health, life and dental insurance (for hourly and part-time team members as well); and plentiful rewards for top performers.
