Lori Siefker, Coordinator for the Information Technology ID Card Office, has been featured in an article the Ball State Daily News about her love for the Indianapolis 500.

Among her many experiences described in the article, Lori talks about how an internship with Walker Racing in 1995 “sparked an obsession” with an already deep interest in IndyCar racing and how, as an intern, she even had the opportunity to be photographed as an IndyCar driver during a photoshoot.

“There was no driver there that day, so intern Lori got to do it,” Siefker said. “They put a race suit on me and a helmet on me.”
