Liberal arts majors learning more STEM concepts along with STEM majors learning more 'liberal arts' is a good idea. |

If full body suits can be made to fit properly, why do we have so many robots with saggy bumper covers? |

It shows more than anything, that there are students out there that want to learn, to do better, to improve their own lives and those around them. Thankfully, FIRST is there to help them realize some of their goals. |

A winning robot is not a winning robot unless you have winning drivers too. You need the time to develop both. |

Being called coach for the first time by some of my team. My dad was a football player and when I told him that story he teared up a bit. Me? A Coach? |

Making GP a rule would be the equivalent of making a law that says you have to help get kittens out of trees. |

I saw a big opening in the bees section and asked if we could sit for this match and was told we were welcome to sit there. Your team made space for about 15 of my team members that came with me. |

Interestingly enough, I saw Shaun open his backpack for a moment during the Newton Alliance selection.... 4 Hours later Team 25 was on Einstein... |

When Dean says it's not about the robot he really means it. We're gonna get a speech whether we want it or not and of we complain we'll get even more. |

By far, the worst thing about it was the severe lack of cowbell. There was no cowbell what so ever. Had there been cowbell that would have completely changed everything for me. |

I think it's pretty cool that the Black Eyed Peas and other celebrities are willing to take up their time to come celebrate science and technology with us. |

The FIRST program is different. It has a different purpose. It isn't superficial, it's results are long term and lasting.
I hope that FIRST is still on message. |

You shouldn't have to apologize at all for wanting to have fun. This is supposed to be fun. You shouldn't gauge your level of enjoyment at the event based on your place in the standings. |

As guests in the city, we should make an effort to do some fundraising for the folks affected by the storm. Any ideas out there? |

[Don't] celebrate mediocrity and want the losers to have an equal chance? Please. Work your butt off for six weeks, keep doing it until you have taught yourself how to be excellent, and go and instead of waiting for a handout. |
