I am also displeased with the re-word of the award criteria. It seems to me the award has gone from what team best spreads a love and appreciation for science, technology, learning, etc. to "what team best spreads FIRST to the most schools, and keeps it that way." I understand what they are going for, but it looks like they have narrowed it saying "The only way to accomplish our goal is with FIRST teams. All other endeavors aren't as good." Might not be their intent, but it's how it reads. I've been thinking a lot about this over the past few days, because I didn't want to write just a gut reactionary response to the change, but I can't think of it any other way. Just my two cents, looking to see what others think
