Re: STEM vs. STEAM
Don't we already have Art in FIRST? Look around at a competition. People are always taking pictures (photography is technically an art). Fliers are everywhere. Sure, posters are made on a computer but it takes some sort of art skills to make them look good. I also heard of a chairman's team last year sculpting a tower in a chairman's presentation. Sculpting is an art. All I'm saying is there is already art in FRC.
Also, think about this a little more. My twin sister joined the robotics team last year. She is on our school's speech team. Last year, she actually wrote a speech about STEM vs. STEAM last year. I thought she was crazy at first when she wrote it. Then I heard all her explanations and Art actually fits in well into the Engineering and Technology aspects.
