Re: FIRST: COLLEGE ?

Well, I think it sounds like an awesome idea. But I can see where everyone else is coming from. Why can't there be a college team that also mentors a FIRST team? And I think it would be a great way for college students to start networking. I got an awesome internship in high school through FIRST. I know that I had an amazing time in FIRST but I didn't get to do everything that I wanted to and didn't get learn everything about certain things that I wanted to learn more about. And I sit in my math and physics class in college and I wonder "what am I ever going to use this stuff for?" and I think something like FIRST COLLEGE would allow students to apply all this knowledge and see if we really do want to be in engineering. I dunno, I don't think that something like this goes against what FIRST is trying to promote, but maybe that's just me.
