United Technologies Corporation has had a long-term commitment to FIRST since the mid 90's. They have had a lot of success with respect to recruiting new engineers, and granting internships to undergraduate engineers that eventually are hired upon graduation. It's a win/win situation for the Corporation and the schools they are affiliated with. It's great to see upper management recognizing this by expanding the program.
Not enough can be said about Mike Sperber's committment to FIRST, along with the rest of the Regional Planning Committee, for doing a great job at the Connecticut Regional. Handling 62 teams without any serious glitches is amazing.
