QotW [4-27-03]: Colleges and FIRST Teams
In last week's question, it was revealed that a lot of teams use post-season competitions to train their newest members and to show them first-hand what a FIRST competition is like.
This week, I'd like to examine what happens to students once they graduate from high school and move on to college.
Question 4-27-03: How much of an impact will FIRST have upon the decisions you make regarding college or university? Will you only attend a school that is already involved in FIRST? Will you help start a team at a school that isn't yet involved?
Dean's homework has been consistant over the past few years. He's asked us to carry FIRST with us as we move into college or university. So, let's find out what FIRST's retention really is and if we're spreading FIRST to new colleges and universities, or if we're staying involved by attending colleges with the program already in place.
(Edit: My PC said it was midnight when I posted this. Honest.)
