Any incite any specific college (especially the University of Illinois I can't find anything on them) would be greatly appreciated and when/if this project get's finish I will be glad to share this with any/all people that would like this....

Purdue University is heavily involved in FIRST.
The student organization, Purdue FIRST Programs, does the following to support FIRST:
- Mentors 5 local FLL teams
- Manages and provides all technical support for team 461
- Is in the process of getting the go ahead to host a regional in 2005.
In addition, Purdue University offers one $30,000(?) scholarship, distributed over 4 years, for 1 high school student involved in FIRST that attends Purdue University.
I could ramble, but that's the concise list. Let me know if you need anything else.
