Re: Newly Graduated FIRSTers

Where I'm going to school there are no FIRST team within 45 minutes of my campus. I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not yet because I do want to mentor, but I want to maintain a high GPA more, and be the least stressed as possible. Being so far away from any FIRST teams will kind of push off any temptation to mentor for my freshman year. I know I will mentor when I graduate from school, but until then I think there are plenty of other things to do. For my robotics fix, some of my friends who graduated before me and attending the same college as me have already begun forming a VEX U team for this upcoming season so I'm sure that I'll have plenty of time taken up by that this year.

Maybe in my later years of college I will approach the local high schools and try to build up a FRC/FTC program here, but until then I think I will be plenty happy and busy between school, VEX U, and who knows what else.
