Re: Supported by school or sponsor?

I was referring to making a living through sports. Im just P.O'd at my school district, because they will do anything for athletics, yet they discriminate against technology students, eventhough they claim "technology is the most important thing", and "technology is now". And at my school, the robotics team and the sports teams are two very different social classes. The jocks don't ever acknowledge us. Since you all have good luck as far as the school liking your team, how do you accomplish this? Because we could obviously use some help in this area, (all of our previous attempts have failed). Any suggestions on how to "close the gap" between technology and sports?
