Re: College-supported FRC teams
FRC 3612 - Springdale, Arkansas - is mentored by University of Arkansas College of Engineering professors and students.
FRC 3937 - Searcy, Arkansas - is sponsored by Harding Academy, the prep school on the campus of Harding University. The team will use the University's machine shop, etc.
FRC 3942 - Harrison, Arkansas - is a team with students from 19 small, rural schools that will meet at North Arkansas College.
FRC 3994 - Pine Bluff, Arkansas - made up of students from 4 area schools and the team will meet at the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff Center for Robotics Education Excellence.
FRC 4040 - Jonesboro, Arkansas - partially mentored by professors and students from Arkansas State University College of Engineering.
We have focused on university engineering programs and technical colleges as "homes" for Arkansas FIRST teams and are very excited about these partnerships. The colleges are looking for hands-on projects to keep their students interested and mentoring high school FRC teams seems to fit very well.
