Re: 100 Scholars featured on CNN

I was sitting in front of one of the lead mentors of this team in Atlanta during the awards ceremonies.... It was the first time I was actually happy to see someone crying. Their mentors had such an awesome impact on these kids and I'm glad we could share in their celebration in the stands.

Re: 100 Scholars featured on CNN

Major congrats to 3091!

Cnn/video posted a three minute segmet clip. This is the first time I've seen a major news outlet have a special regarding the Rookie All-Star Award. It was brief and to the point while clearly illistrating the message of FIRST to the entire world. The Award is well deserved by your team and another big congrats on your success.

However, it is a bit difficult to find:
(usually a video shows up in the Tech section shortly after Championships)

Cnn.com -> Video -> Latest News -> Scroll down to Competing with robots

and only 5% of Engineers are African American!?!



Sadly, I believe it. At Clarkson we had more international students then individuals from either low income or American minorities.
People, we have some serious work ahead of us.
