Hello CD community. I am a senior in high school on team 3548 and I am doing a documentary on how influential FRC is for high schoolers. If you could pick one word to describe FRC to a non-FIRSTer what would it be.

For those of you who are youngins... 42 is the answer Deep Thought gave to question posed it..the Ultimate Answer to Life, The Universe and Everything. It comes from the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe.

Isn't FIRST robotics the answer to life, the universe, and everything?

Impossible. Organizations like this shouldn't exist! So much money, so much volunteering commitment, so much difficulty in running a successful team or pulling off a successful event, but we all do it every single year, again and again, and most of us will never stop.

I'll list a few:
-United
-Unreal
-Unique
-Intense
-Indescribable

Lots of I's and U's :D

Not one word, but to be honest whenever I think of what FIRST is or could be all I think of is a word for "bringing a tear to my eyes". That is what FIRST does to me.

FIRST students get more real world experience in the execution of technology programs than the vast majority of their peers.

My son when asked thought for a moment and then said
"LIFE"
It changes lives, it is your life during the season, it is a way of life for many Mentors whos' students have grown and moved on (but come to Kick Off every year) (and help with build before going back to campus).

Think about it, "LIFE"

Beginning. I choose this word because FIRST it self and FRC are a new beginning for students, volunteer's, and mentor's futures. :D :) :cool: ;)
