Haha that's definitely one of my goals! UChicago doesn't have an engineering department but I'm sure I'll find students interested in the program - I know many colleges sponsor and mentor teams so I'm looking at that as a possibility.

Also Schaumburg is not exactly close to close to Chicago. It is about 30 miles away.

By "FIRST presence" I meant for the University specifically - not Chicago

It's not a college like WPI or Georgia Tech with a lot of FIRST alum (I actually don't know any FIRST alums who go there or will go there), and it's not a popular choice for FIRSTers since it's more liberal arts based and has no engineering program. I don't plan on mentoring my first year but I'll definitely be volunteering when I get the chance! PM'ed anyways
