Your robotics team suddenly isn't going to get to apply for a grant that's targeted for public murals or community theater, but graphic design programs are going to be able to compete against your robotics team for STEAM grants.

Here's some examples:
http://stemtosteam.org/
http://steam-notstem.com/
https://learningforward.org/learning...-stem-to-steam

And if you need more proof, here's House Resolution 51 (2014), which is explicitly about adding the Arts into Federal STEM funding.
https://www.congress.gov/bill/113th-...-resolution/51

This is real. This is not a trivial matter. This isn't just an acronym change.

Thanks that is very enlightening, you convinced me.

I've been on Chief Delphi for a long time (not as long as some others, of course), and I think this might be the first time I've seen these words.
