Re: 5013c Help
If you are part of a pre-existing 501(c)3 then it's officers and organizers are officially responsible for your finances. There is no real way to change that legally.
If they do not wish to allow you to operate in a way that is conducive to robotics education / design and construction then I would recommend you have a very nice and polite conversation with them to let them know you will be getting 501(c)3 status through other means. Like others have said, there are plenty of resources here on getting 501(c)3 status on your own (though it is typically arduous). You could also attempt to partner with a 4H organization or other that will get you 501(c)3, but the school might not be so keen on that.
