Wow…thanks, I definately didnt expect to see something like this turn up on CD. But yeah, I applied to these scholarships just hoping to get one of them, but as it turned out, I recieved both of them. It was truely an honor. As for my decision, I chose Northeastern due to the amazing co-op program, campus, and the fact that it’s a five minute walk from Fenway. Anyway, thanks again for the congratulations, and I offer my congratulations to all of the other FIRST scholarship winners.

No problem Joe. Just figured since I had recieved some congratulations on my $6,000/year I won last year that you deserved some public recognition for your combined $70,000/year you won. Think any chance you could post your video for the WPI scholarship online to let everyone see what it takes to win?

Actually, due to my complete lack of video editing and animation skills, I wrote an essay detailing the “design innovations” involved in our robot. I would be happy to post that if requested.

Congrats and good luck at northeastern, a senior from our team is going next year on a good scholarship :slight_smile:

Yay more Northeastern Frosh!

I’ll have fun breaking ya guys in next year… :smiley:
(muhahaha)
