Ok, so I lied....im back for more....

When I came over here to Purdue I found out about a rookie team they started and I came aboard

Pure choice.

I wanted to do more than just a FIRST team my freshman year of college...so far I'm involved heavily in a community service group on campus and currently pledging for a sorority on top of having a job.

I'm planning on volunteering at BAE, UTC and the championship though.

I recently discovered there are a couple new teams in the area, so next year I may go over to help them out when I get some time.

Other than when I was living at home on my first co-op and needed something to do to stay sane, I haven't had time to mentor a team since I came to college. But I've volunteered at least the Philly Regional and some years the VCU regional as well, plus I've been a judge at FLL tournaments, and I founded the Drexel FIRST Robotics club (thus pairing other Drexel students up with teams to mentor). So I'm teamless in that I more do stuff for FIRST in general than one team. Though I am still on my old teams email list....

maybe some people don't know how to change it, its unlikely but maybe.

Well I graduated in 2003, mentored 151 in 2004. I had sort of a falling out with my old team. As hard as I tried to keep them on the right track in 2004, it didnt work. So I took a build season off to figure out what I want to do with my life, however i will be voulnteering at BAE, hopefully nats, and definetly IRI.
