Society of College FIRST-a-holics

[Matt Leese]

At Nationals this year, there was a get together of college students on Thursday night at Pleasure Island. Out of that impetous for that idea came the idea for an organization of college students in FIRST. Hence the Society of College FIRST-a-holics. This idea generally comes from Joe Ross, Ken Leung, and myself.

The general premise is to make it easier for college students to be involved in FIRST. This will definately involve supporting the creation of new college teams. Also more get togethers such as the one at Pleasure Island are definately something we want to work on.

At the moment we're primarily looking for feedback of any kind. Whether people support the idea. What our goals should be. What activities we should participate in.

We'd also like those eligibile to please sign-up. That will help us gauge interest at the least. All forms of comments are welcome.

A web page has been created and is available at: http://www.rit.edu/~msl8101/scf/

I'm looking forward to your comments and suggestions.

Matt
