I have not seen any press releases stating that Tom Stephens has given up his seat on FIRST Board of Directors and I reflect on Tom's comments that Dean brought up during the closing cerimonies in April...
<paraphase>we have to do more of this, and faster</paraphrase>.
With Tom as a Vice-Chairman at GM and FIRST as one of
GM's educational partnering organizations, I'm confident that GM's support of FIRST will continue. How it manifests itself may change, as many things are going to at GM, but I expect that the support will be there. I am a second generation GM employee and have a number of things 'at risk' in this situation, but I am certain that we will continue to see a FIRST/GM relationship as long as Tom is still in the picture.
