Re: FIRST: the incredible community
I agree. FIRST has not just made kids into engineers [which it's done an AMAZING job of, by the way], but it's helped a good majority of us become better people as a whole. The entire process of becoming a team, starting with getting sponsors, teaches students to think before they act or speak.
Yet another reason i absolutely love this organization. It's not about the celebrities [although Dean, Woodie, Lavery, and all the others who make FIRST possible are AWESOME], or even the actual competition, it's about becoming a responsible, smart, and graciously professional person.
in short, i <3 FIRST for everything it teaches us.
