The Blog entry has a minor error: Spencer Berglund is from our team, FRC 2530. Congrats to Spencer and all the rest of the interns.

I asked a question, but got no response. Is this open to all mentors or just mentors that teach?

The website made it sound like "Mentors and Teachers" may apply, but the application specifies "Mentors that teach".

EDIT: The website must have changed since initally sent out. It now says that they must be teachers as well.
