Re: Interview room & judging panel (rookie questions)

I've been in our Chairman's award interview for the past two years. Both nationally and at 2 separate regionals. Last year, a rookie team was ahead of us... and when the judge came out of the room to tell the next team to come in, he asked if they were rookies, and they answered yes and he sent them away. He told them they weren't eligible for an interview. (These are just my experiences i'm sharing) Also... at Nationals in 2003 an actual judge told us to send in 3 students for the interview. She said that it was harming us to have mentors in the room with us. (again... these are just my experiences)

Leadership is an opportunity to serve. It is not a trumpet call to self-importance.

Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.
