Re: The promise of college for our generation
I like to feel proud of myself when I come upon a student who can solve any integral on the face of the planet, but who has never taken apart an engine, turned a piece of metal on a lathe, drilled a hole, installed an operating system, served a web page, typed a line of code, purchased a ball bearing, or otherwise.
FIRST gives you exposure to so many things that a majority of students miss out on.
