Re: Assisting Alliance Members Off-field
We focus on cross training our mechanical students on basic knowledge of other systems so they can help teams trouble shoot basic problems (help pass inspection) and they know who our "expert" is if an issue is out of their realm of knowledge.
In the past we have had a veteran student and a rookie student go introduce themselves to each team that is a rookie to 3rd year team for no reason other than to say hello and be a friendly face on a Thursday morning. Sometimes the interaction doesn't go past the friendly check in to see how things are going and sometimes it turns into a Thursday rebuild.
I challenge anybody reading this thread to work with the other veteran teams attending your event to muster the student power to get every robot through inspection before the end of practice matches.
