Re: Mentors on drive team

2022 has an entirely student designed, student built robot. This philosophy transfers into everything we do. We have had a student coach every year of our existence, and we will until their is a radical shift in the philosophy. Everything about our team is student run, our mentors sometimes ask questions about our designs to make sure that we have thought them through completely. To me, seeing a mentor on a drive team doesn't seem to make sense. Everything that a mentor can see, a student can see better, faster, and communicate it with the drive team efficiently.
