Carrying the message of first....

I got a bit frustrated when the Rochester media carried nothing about the great accomplishments of all our teams (local and remote) at both the FRC and the Chesapeake regional. So I wrote a little blog article on the "Lamentable state of media in Rochester, NY" in my Rochester Startups blog. I encourage you to read and comment on it, and pass it along. I am looking for real positive suggestions for how to raise the bar for media coverage of ALL academic competitions - not just FIRST. I will collect these strategies and put together a plan for help. Until this culture learns to value academics as much as they do athletics our country(s) are not going to be the competitive powerhouse we once were:

The lamentable state of Rochester Media
