Re: Team 1717 retires

(the following is speculation)

It seems to me that there is a split between the team and the staff/admin of the school. I wonder if there is something going on in the background that we haven't been told about. It looks like the school wants more control/oversight/accountability in what is going on with the capstone project. This seems odd.

The way this change was delivered also seems odd to me. There seemed to be no warning that this could happen. Combine this with the lack of consultation tend to make me think there is a back story as well.

Was there some group (teacher, Department Chair, Admin) that the team has rubbed the wrong way? Was it that the team, that was not totally in the school's control, was becoming the face of the school?

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.
