Re: Another Culture Change
The issue of student vs mentor designed always perplexed me. Some of our teams most blatant failures have been concieved by mentors while some of our greatest successes were designed by students.

Main topic: I have been a rather long hiatus from this forum so I had totally missed most of this discussion, but the idea that ANYONE would stoop that low over a robot is saddening. Since when were these rolling paperwieghts the reason we do this? We do this to be inspired: be it by building, outreach, cheering, or learning. We're supposed to be the one's driving the robots not the other way round >.>
