Genius High School Robot Team Can’t Afford College

This month’s Wired magazine has a terriffic story about a team of students from a high school in an economically depressed part of Phoenix, who took part in an underwater-robot building competition against students from the top universities in the country — and won. All of the students are undocumented Mexican immigrants who don’t qualify for most financial aid or even in-state tuition, and therefore can’t afford to attend college, in the US, Mexico, or anywhere. When I read the article I determined to try to do something to help give these kids their chance, and I was delighted to discover that their faculty advisor has set up a scholarship fund for them, and I’m about to donate some money to help. I’d like to encourage OSNews readers to read the story, and if they feel the same way, to donate.
