Where are they now?

All this talk of the 13 year teams has me wondering, where are they now?

The first students that went through the program are now about 30 years old. What are they doing now? Has there been any effort to asses what they are doing vs the rest of the population of their school? What percentages are invloved with another FIRST team? Have any mentors been around that long or have they all burned out/moved on?

Mayhaps someone on these teams has a roster from 92 and will be willing to try and track them down.

For that matter, anyone that was on a FIRST team before 1997 has had a change to finnish college and go onto the 'real world' (or graduate school), where are they?

I heard someone from Raytheon speak at the SoCal regional about how they started sponsering teams 8 years ago, and are beggining to see the kids come out of the HS/college into the workforce, and are comming to work for them.

I am looking for any real information on this, not I head that someone is working now, but this many students are doing x, this many are x, this many can't be found.
