FIRST $CASH$ prize...
...i was wondering why first did not give cash prizes for winning nationals. FIRST wants to attract more viewers and students and i think money...duh. I know some are probably thinkin that is what the scholarships are for...but umm...i disagree. Money could be used to build next years robot...travel...rent "warehouses"...build stuff...and even give to students to go to school...or some shoes...lol. Well i am for money... The only cons i can think of are...a more competive spirit...which may cancel out gp... and people might deem it unneccesary to find sponsors. but thats what i think...
EDIT: What about if the prize was a refund for your national registration fee? Last edited by TheNotoriousKid : 11-01-2007 at 15:56. |
