Lightbulb FIRST College Edition?
In reading the many posts about concerns of FIRST alumni, I came up with the idea that, if FIRST can run a high school level and a middle/elementary school level competition, could it then run a college level competition. I really haven't fleshed out the whole concept yet (i.e. cost, rules, etc.), but I was wondering what people's reactions to such a concept would be. The one downside that I can think of, is that it would take away a portion of the mentor pool, as college students would be busy working on their own robots instead of high school level robots. Any thoughts?
