1st week schedule

We set it up pretty formally like this. I really hate how legislatively and formally everything is done on our team bu it is probably for the better. Keeps the slack off students in line I suppose.


Our build season starts at 6:30 am on Saturday January 4. We will meet here at Clark (unless there is a problem with getting the video feed) and watch the Kickoff until 9 am. After a short break, we will carry out some activities designed to help us understand the game and to begin to understand the characteristics we want our robot to have. This will go on until approximately 5:00 pm or a little later.

On Sunday we will meet from noon until about 5 pm. We will continue to refine our desired characteristics of the robot and we will break up into smaller groups to begin the process of creating proposals (designs) to be presented to the executive committee (Veteran Members) on Wednesday.

On Monday and Tuesday, space will be provided for you to continue to meet in your small groups, creating your designs, from 3 until 8 PM. You don't need to be here the whole time, but you may if you need to.

On Wednesday you may work here from 3 until 5;45. At 6:00 proposals will be presented to the executive committee. The committee will decide which plan or plans will be refined further.

On Saturday 1/11, the executive committee will make final decisions
leading to work groups.

From this time on until February 18 we will meet on Saturdays from 8:30 until approx 5:00 pm and Tuesday from 6:00 pm until 8:00 pm at a minimum. Subgroups are likely to meet at other times during that period as well.

We will not take design proposals from anyone who misses the first Saturday or Sunday. Only first year students will be allowed to make presentations on Wednesday night. This means that veteran students who have ideas will have to develop them with first year students who will then present. All decisions will be made by the executive committee of 5 students made up of veterans and subject to veto by the adults.
