| More than 1,000 elementary and middle school students from around South Carolina will converge in Columbia Feb. 5 for the third-annual S.C. FIRST LEGO League tournament, sponsored by USC’s College of Engineering and Information Technology and the S.C. Department of Education.
The event, to be held at the Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center, is called "No Limits" and will feature approximately 100 teams.
The competition requires students to examine places in their communities that are inaccessible for people with physical disabilities and find solutions to make those places more accessible. Students will use LEGO pieces to design and build robots that will compete in events requiring them to overcome barriers to accessibility.
