In ChiefDelphi, teenagers, college students, and young adults have been open, generous, and thoughtful when trying to educate me and bring me up-to-date with terminology, bridging differences in experiences. I've felt very lucky. Hopefully, students in schools and other programs are as generous, helpful, and fun as the majority of those that are in the community of FIRST.

That's really awesome. My math class is great and I could image them being a FIRST team because of all their wonderful charisma, so yes there are other places where students are being generous and helpful.
