In that case, Motorola again with at last count 180+ graduates (from 12 years of Wildstang alone not including the 7 other Motorola teams over the years) including nine now working at Motorola (and several graduates from other teams now working at Motorola) and one (that I know of) working at Underwriter's Labs who oversee safety for competitions now and one teacher in our school district.

BTW, remember I am not a Motorola employee.
