FPIT seems like a great area for a group like SIM to take the initiative.

We have our work to do just like a lot of other organizations working in STEM areas are doing around the country. The first President Bush talked about a thousand points of light. We’ve got that kind of thing in STEM and here in Massachusetts there are a thousand programs going on and initiatives in every city, town and school system. That’s the good news but also the bad news because it’s not yet being scaled statewide and none of the programs across the state are being scaled on a national basis. We’ve got the same thing going on at SIM, all kinds of related programs and we need to identify the points of light with the potential to scale nationally.
