Why STEM Matters

I feel strongly that we have to engage our kids at a young age in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). I was recently asked to write an article about why company supports the FIRST Robotics competition. This was one assignment that was easy to write. I am really proud to be a sponsor. It is amazing to see the change that occurs in the kids that participate in this program.

  1. Hi -- love your blog. This article came out the same day as yours, and is on a related topic. It would be great if these budding robotics engineers from Spelman got more attention.
