I know those kind of people, and they are the ones that will surprise you... their worth is every bit as much as those who have received the "label".

Just something to think about... everyone deserves a voice.

I agree. I feel like this group should be for people who are interested in forging relationships/sharing experiences with other FIRST members, and members shouldn't be barred from joining the group just because they don't have a leadership title. Also, many people who don't become student leaders or never get opportunities to become leaders usually can become leaders in college organizations or the work force (with interest of course), so barring students who haven't been given a title in high school is wrong because they will get many more opportunities to become leaders in their lifetime and hit the "caliber" the OP was talking about.

I feel like the OP should do some clarifying here, based on the responses to his post.
