For my school, getting a team going was a 4 year endeavor. The team spent 3 years doing SAE Baja to prove that they were committed to the project, and their senior year actually doing the FSAE.

One exposure/ access point for SpaceX that is outside of the top schools is the FSAE competition in Michigan each year. FSAE draws teams from many different schools, and the teams basically design and build a race car from scratch. It's an amazing event; and SpaceX uses the event to pick up some of the best gearheads…

Oh man that must smell TERRIBLE!
Oh no, it's a shark!
Just gotta get those flight hours in...
They probably had to take out the original audio because they were laughing too hard.
Oh man you gotta go with it, I love me an elk burger!
