the timing is awful for alumni in college.

Come to University of Delaware. Spring semester doesn't start until the beginning of Week 5 or 6 of build season (Week 6 last year, Week 5 this year due to the timing of Kickoff), giving you time to mentor during winter break, and it doesn't end until around Memorial Day, so finals are later.

Full Disclosure: I was not aware of this prior to attending.

Try your college graduation/commencement being the same weekend as the Championship. That's what I get to deal with next year.

Try commencement, and you are lead mentor of a team likely to go. Edit: oh hey, we were alliance partners on Archimedes.
