That's FUNNY... At our school, this year our team's Teacher
IS the school's Latin teacher. If some of his students join the team, I'll
bet we'll end up with a cool Latin team slogan this year...
(Last year, our Teacher was from the Math department, who became too busy to do it this year. We don't even HAVE a metal/wood shop at the school right now, so getting "the shop teacher" to work with the students isn't an option.)
OBThreadRef: I ran into a FIRST person from another city on a bus once who was wearing a team shirt. I'm
often approached when I'm out of town if I happen to wear any kind of FIRST related clothing or jacket. There's so many teams now, if you wear a team shirt on vacation trips, you're bound to meet another FIRSTer (FIRSTite? FIRSTian?), or general robotics fan, and have a nice conversation.
