I think both programs deserve recognition and suport. Anyone who wants to try to add this challenge to their curriculum can have their advisor contact me at robmasek@gmail.com

Thanks Rob
I was around the Rochester Robotics Rampage where they had the IQ there. It looked really fun and i wished they had it when i was in HS. but the only thing is, if ya make one think this - "you can never over design". The winner was of a Battle Bots Middleweight which came in second place because their front weapon broke earlier. so if ya do it, think big and creative enough to get wins. good luck and mostly have fun!
