I agree with John that a College Mentor award would be an excellent addition, and it disserves to be in a category of it's own.

College students are a minority and a different kind of mentor... we may never be able to win Woodie Flowers right away because most of us will only have loyalties to our college team for the duration of our education. And many don't understand the difficulty of transitioning from High School Student to Mentor in less than a year.

There are many additional challenges associated with being a college mentor that need to be recognized. For instance, the close age difference with the students present a few problems with discipline, there is a lot to learn in a short amount of time about running a team, a lot of sacrifices to be made to get to meetings, and we always have to go bug our college administrations to keep the team going. I know there's more... everybody has their own story.

I might try to suggest this next week...
