You'll have to enlighten me I guess. Can't really find any good information on what meaningful impact he's had to promote STEM besides talking about how dope it is. If the point is to get the public interested in STEM then why is his only appearance about this at the FIRST Championship where he's preaching to people already involved? Shouldn't he promote it at every other event he hosts or speaks?

Should we invite Kanye West next year, or maybe Miley Cyrus? They have quite a few Twitter followers, are these the kind of people we want to aspire to be?
