Re: What to do when you lose support from your school?
Fund-raise like nobodies business between now and kickoff and you should easily have enough to field a robot at one or two regional events.
In 2010 team 95 worked out of a classroom and fielded a robot made with minimal machining support (5 or 10 parts total, I think). It was the best robot we could buy and assemble from McMaster and AndyMark! It wound up mid-pack at CT.
Do not give up hope if the school cannot/does not financially support your team. This is exactly the contingency situation that our homework was for this year: diversify your sponsor base!
