Re: Criteria for Allowing New Team Members

I understand both sides of the grades arguement. personally however, I don't think its a good idea. For one a good part of robotics students are taking honors or AP courses making there gpa inaccurate (HPA fixes this). But even then, students that have choosen to help out more in the shop as opposed to doing homework should not be penalized by being kicked off or suspended from the team.

I may be biased because I did horrible in school durring build season. Still, my choice to attend every single build meeting should not be an offence worth getting kicked off for. Instead I think team leads just need to remind the student thst he is failing _____ and should probably work on improving that.
