In the article at the link above:
"If the US really wants to make a dent in the number of kids that go into the sciences, it needs to start to change its priorities from athletic to academic. –"


I don't agree. It isn't a zero sum game. We don't have to give up athletics in order to have academics / robotics.

We have a great WindRiver c++ programmer. She is also a varsity cheerleader. She has the best of both worlds..
