We're looking particularly for mentors with skills in the following areas: - Prototyping
- Design
- CAD
- Manufacturing
- Project management
- Graphic design and media
- Marketing
- Technical writing, grant writing
Requirements: - Must have a sense of humor (Tem 254: Teh Chezy Pofs is just the tip of the iceberg)
- Must be able to deal with other mentors and their large egos and obsessive compulsions
- Must be willing to spend about 20-40 hours a week with us for four months a year
- Must not object to having EJ's head photoshopped onto random pictures of you
- Must take a vow of secrecy and undergo a Facebook background check
- Must be able to endure constant heckling from other mentors
Benefits: - Mentor bacon
- No snow or ice during build season
- Mentors get served first when team parents bring dinner
- Weekly cookies and other baked goods courtesy of Pat
- Free hat
In all seriousness, we're always happy to welcome people who want to us out. Drop any of us a line (Cory, Travis, EJ, Tom, Richard, me) if you're interested. Non-technical mentors are welcome too. (NASA engineers also welcome -- we don't currently have any.) |
I can vouch for how amazing the bacon is. . . . actually the food in general is great unless you are trying to lose weight during build
