Re: Stop The Madness
Ok, I'm debating on whether or not to post this, but I just feel like I have to. I brought 18 new students into this competition this year. I brought in 5 sponsors who, even though I believe sponsor other teams, have now increased their faith in this program. I've brought in 2 new school districts and tried to bring FIRST to the attention of the East Lansing area. I didn't work this hard to show off a bunch of people being negative. This program is incredible, it's fantastic. That, to me, has always been the difference between FIRST and other groups to me. I want all of these new people to see my FIRST, not this one. FIRST is about coming together, not ripping each other apart, that's what I love about it. I hope that these problems that people feel the need to attack FIRST over can be resolved. I really do.
PS. When I say "I" in this, I am talking about things that myself and my other mentors did, but the way that I felt about them.
