Re: Sport or not?
"Sports" are nothing more than entertainment. There is no "VALUE" created beyond the entertainment. It doesn't make our cars run cleaner, grow better crops or clean polluted water.
FIRST creates value. FIRST makes society better through this collaboration between mentors and students. The FIRST program allows both the students and mentors to see the possibilities. It gives value in both directions. The lessons of FIRST in the short term makes you a better student. The long term value is in how you react to the challenges that you will face in life. As a student you took on an impossibly hard challenge with an impossible time constraint and made it happen. That lesson will serve you well in the future. Not Sport |
