Can't quote that enough. Volunteer, it's an amazing way to stay involved once you graduate.

Also, remember that your studies still come first, don't feel like you have maintain ridiculous hours of commitment. I took some time off before mentoring, and it was the right choice for me (FRC was still there when I was ready to jump back in).

Also, I see you're a programmer. If you'd like, help us build The Blue Alliance - it's totally open source and community driven. I started contributing after I graduated as a way to stay involved and choose my level of commitment, and it was by far the best choice I've made. You can help contribute to the website or one of the mobile apps - we'd be happy to have you. Check it out on GitHub or shoot me a PM if you'd like to learn more.
