I felt privileged just to be an observer as these wonderful young people worked their tails off to make this happen. Even the students who graduated during the project were so committed that they remained involved, juggling this with their college studies. The original student OATH project leader, Nicole Skinner, remained intimately involved after she went on to college and deserves tons of credit for what she accomplished.

Jamie Goodreau's high school students always end up with more knowledge and experience about planning, organizing, and executing to achieve a goal than most college grads I know.
