What distinguishes the Ann Arbor version from other TEDx events is that the students do all the work! The event brings together a group of kids who are diverse in many ways, and together they organize into various committees: marketing\/PR, tech (this group receives free training from the local public access television station), design, etc. They audition young people from across the city.
