U in the Driver Seat (UDS) is a peer-to-peer safety program for college students. As part of the peer-to-peer methodology, the program relies upon college students to help guide, direct, and shape the program to help make it meaningful and successful. The Collegiate Advisory Board helps make this mission possible.
It’s easy to get involved and you will make a difference by helping the Texas A&M Transportation Institute team make the UDS program what you and your peers need to fight impaired driving and save lives. It’s a great way to do something you care about, stay active on your campus, and create a lasting impression on a growing program. CAB members have real responsibilities and create real impact. The success of the program depends on you.
Collegiate Advisory Board (CAB) members are selected every Spring and serve one full year. The Collegiate Advisory Board applications will open January 12, 2015. Follow us on social media to watch for announcements.
Collegiate Advisory Board members:
- Provide insight on how to engage their peers and sustain their interest in promoting the message of driving impaired prevention,
- Assist in organizing program-oriented events and activities,
- Provide feedback, ideas and opinions on new program materials, safety messages, promotional items and related elements,
- Participate in quarterly meetings, and
- Serve as ambassadors and leaders for U in the Driver Seat on their campus and in the community.
