Re: Team applications: Yes, or no?

That makes sorting them into subteams easier, and it makes it a whole lot easier to contact them if you need to. (And I hope you never have to use the emergency contact information, but if you need it it's there.)

You can ask someone to leave the team later, if you need to; usually, that would only be if they're being counter-productive or if there are "other issues" that need to be resolved.
This sums up what I was going to say. We don't do it anymore, but I had to fill out an information sheet-type thing when I joined my freshman year.

That being said, we do have other requirements for being on the team, such as minimum GPA (everyone must maintain at least a C average in all classes), volunteering at Brunswick Eruption (unless you have a really good excuse), and completing 10 hours of community service before the beginning of the build season each year.
