Does every FIRST-grad HAVE to go into science/technology?

I mean, think about it, first of all, its impossible.

But I was thinking about it when I was just reading a few posts: Is "mission complete" when a student goes into a science/technology/engineering field? Is the main object of FIRST to send students into science/technology careers? Should it be?

Personally, I think it should be what it literally is: for inspiration. FIRST should be inspiring and cultivating their graduates to infuse science & technology awareness into their careers, no matter what it is, not just to go into engineering.

So, I guess what Im saying is that theres always room for science....but I cant accept that FIRST is here to just crank out engineers.
