Exclamation Re: What does your school think of robotics?
You know at one point in high school. Our school did in fact believe that we were the geeks, nerds, and outcasts. But I think they finally realize that FIRST is an excellent program which is capable of molding many students in excellent leaders in the technology, science, and mathematics field. Knowledge and experience like that would someday most likely make us the future business leaders of top companies. I believe they would realize that someday they will be working for us.

As Bill Gates once said, be nice to the nerds in high school for someday they will be your boss.

Now leaping to college, Central Connecticut State University does not have a team affiliation as of yet. But we are strongly in support of FIRST Lego League. CCSU is actually the State Competition holder each and every December for the FLL competition.

So I believe that each school has its own feelings on FIRST Robotics Teams.
