I'll be honest...I joined FIRST to get into college...because though my voice may have been okay for school choir, and my acting skills got me a minor role in the school musical each year, I needed something more, I needed a career goal. I also was a sophomore when 237 was a rookie, and I wanted to be part of building something new at our school.
Why did I stay? FIRST immersed me into itself. I found my niche on the team, and I dove into finding everything I could on the Internet about FIRST so that I could "talk shop" with the best of them.
Why did I leave? It was a clash of Babson, FIRST, and life, all at once.
Why did I come back? I missed it. I missed being able to "talk shop", to have people respect my opinion. And I realized that there was more that was left for me to do
Soooo, yeah. That's why.
