Thank you for asking, I have forgotten that College Level Robotics is something gaining a lot of momentum and can be confused with College mentorship programs.

EricH was right, and I have gone ahead and added onto the description.
Here is what was added:
Quote:
The College/University FIRST Programs we will be presenting on aren't for "College Level" Robotics Competitions, but rather to start a FIRST program for the University to help start teams(FRC,FTC,FLL) , support local teams in any way they can (through mentorship, sponsorship, or facilities), or hosting a regional at said university/college.

Any chance that this will be recorded and posted online for those of us who are stuck in classes? I'm working with a few others at Virginia Tech to get something started out here, and we'd love to get some knowledge from an experienced group.
I will look into getting it recorded, but if you are interested in the information and a video is not recorded, at the very least we will be updating our official webpage and will be posting the presentation that was given during the conference. I would look out for the link to it on ChiefDelphi in the near future.
