Also why should college student mentors be considered any more special then the rest of the mentors who put in so much time and effort?

Why are the rest of the mentors, save engineers and teachers, excluded from The Woodie Flowers Award?

So, perhaps it isn't unwise to recognize a college student who has done exemplary work to inspire high school students, while still maintaining a level of minimum performance in their own classes.

The incentive to be a good mentor for our teams is strong; almost too strong, sometimes. Perhaps, by offering such recognition, maybe with a scholarship attached, it'd offer additional incentive to avoid burnout.

In the business of inspiration, you don't need a degree.
