Well said Ken, many of the students that cross my path have gone into medicine, pre-med, law, law enforcement, trade schools, computer science, construction, art, auto-mechanic and even engineering.
And they all (mostly) felt that the FIRST experience was hard work but priceless and it allowed them to examine many new opportunities they didn't know about.

PS- This thread/postings is one of the best I've seen, I don't know there was so many old timer.... oh I meant Senior FIRSTers!
