That is a perfect statement! For me, its not the kids that come in wanting to do engineering and learn more about engineering that I call my success stories... its the kids that come in with the low GPAs, or zero interest in robots (maybe they came because their friends joined, or they wanted to travel or even because they just didnt want to go home), and came out with decent GPAs and an interest in engineering or something technical that are the true successes of this program!
