What is SITE?
Students in Themed Entertainment (SITE OSU for short) is a Themed Entertainment conference specifically designed for university students. Bringing together Themed Entertainment clubs across North America, we aim to inspire and support those with aspirations to pursue a full-time professional career in the Themed Attractions/Entertainment Industry.
In January 2019, professionals and students alike gathered at Ohio State's campus to share their stories, and uniting our favorite industry with three days of unparalleled networking potential. We're glad you came!

"When I first saw this event advertised, I was really excited because there are a lot of industry events that you can go to that are hosted around the country, but it was really refreshing to see one that was hosted by a fellow university and a fellow TPEG."

"Many professionals including myself used the phrase “I wish we had this when I was in school.” The information and contacts you make are invaluable and are not easily found elsewhere."
Chay Gruber

"It's just been really cool to see all the ways that people have connected in this industry. A lot of them have actually become really great friends of mine, and it makes me really excited to see what the future holds, doing what I've been dreaming about since I was young."
