What am I going to do? Hold a gun to people's heads? It's hard to wrap my head around, but a large portion of the student population around here simply isn't interested in anything like FRC.

My team has demo'd the robot for many high school classes and watched many students' eyes completely glaze over. We'll offer to let anyone drive the robot and get cricket chirps. We demo at every local high school. We demo at the local FLL event. We demo at sponsor's businesses and at trade shows. Trust me when I say lack hard work is not the issue here. Maybe we're doing something wrong, but a lot of it is a pure and simple lack of interest in anything related to robotics.
