The thing is I am already old and been there from the roots of FIRST, so I can tell you that its different over there. Perhaps, one day you may have a different opinion about it.

Good day ^_^

Added: Also, you do not have to relieve to your high school years. All you have to do is set a different priority in FIRST by changing different roles or position from your high school's original.
yeah, i understand all of that, and i also understand that mentoring can be a very rewarding experience, and i plan to definitely take on that role some day to give back what FIRST gave to me- i owe a lot to this organization.
its just because of my obsessive/addictive personality type i don't think it would be a good idea for me to do it through college (=.
