Re: What's in a name? New Championship Divisions

Dean often says something along the lines of "Ask a kid to name a famous person from Hollywood or professional sports and they will rattle them off all day. Ask them to name a famous currently active scientist or engineer and they give you a blank stare".

With that, I'd love to see a yearly rotating division name. This division would be named after a new scientist every year. The names would be sampled from currently active scientists and engineers. It would be a great way to honor active scientists while also allowing the students to learn a bit more about current research topics.
