Ok, I'm not exactly sure if I'm posting in the right section, but here it goes.
I am a student at The University of Evansville. At the present time, there is no FIRST affiliation at this school.
But there will be.
I'm in the process of getting students and a professor interested, so we can mentor one of the nearby highschools.
I've been in touch with Andy Baker. He's been real nice.
And yes.
If I could get some contact numbers so I can make a good argument as to why we need a whole club for this, I'd really appreciate it.
Also, if you go to a highschool relatively near Evansville, and you'd like some college mentors, get in touch with me, and I'll see if we could help out.
I've found at least two engineer majors from Evansville have gone and helped out with other teams, and was upset that the number was so low. I feel that we really need to get the people up here interested.
Thanks a lot!

She's carrying a soldering iron!" and started laughing, and everybody else started laughing, I could just say, "That's right, it's a soldering iron. The soldering iron of justice." Then everybody would get real quiet and ashamed, because they had made fun of the soldering iron of justice, and I could probably hit them up for a free drink.”
