I totally see your point. However, Dean and woodie founded this program and Don leads it. They all happen to be as you said old white men. However, what Is the use of throwing another person up there for the sake of diversity.

I'm certainly not saying FIRST should have someone on stage 'just for the sake of' diversity. But someone (or a few someones) from their

However, that's not the topic at hand here - sorry for derailing.
