The plan I heard was to have them put up displays in the entrance area at Ypsi. But it would be better still if they were allowed to compete because the culture-changing award they won generated enough points to get them entrance to the whole tournament. I'm afraid there might still be a team or two that wins some award(s) but wouldn't get enough points - in which case, they would truly be very lonely out there in that lobby with their display. I'm not sure how that can be resolved.

the students as well as the mentors on chairmans teams put in way to much time and energy to be reward with getting to set up a display.
on an other note i love the idea of chairmans teams getting a grade in points
but if you have ever judged a First comp(FLL FRC FTC) it's really hard to pick the best team let alone hand out a certain # of Points
