I'm not sure if it's just me, but that link only leads to the search feature of CD-Media, not to any actual picture.

My school does things a little differently than others. For all Varsity sports, we give out a Varsity letter, a giant BG since we are Bishop Guertin. After a student receives the first letter, they then get pins for all subsequent letters. So, our team created our own pin. I currently have 6 Track pins (indoor and outdoor), one football pin, and one FIRST pin, soon to be two!

I checked it and it worked fine for me.

Try it now. I just edited the link in my original post, and here, to show the full sized picture.

I got a letter for football, does that count? We didn't have robotics...

The team I mentor has always given one. Robotics has twice as many trophies as the football team does in the school's display cabinets. :cool: (the school was just built in 2002, iirc)

I do not believe that robotics teams should get a varsity letter for robotics, a Letterman jacket is for athletes, robotics is not a sport. Sure, you put in as much time and all that (the reasons go on and on for pages), but the history of a Letterman jacket is for sport. My old high school had band jackets, if a school would create an "extracurricular" jacket, then it would make much more sense (since many other extra curriculars have immense time committments). I'm fairly sure most of you won't agree, but just see where I'm coming from on this one.
