Re: Help starting a team. Unusual situation
You say it can't be changed, but you are a freshman, you can not have been at it long. It takes years of effort to change a team. For our team, it took the mentors and motivated students more than three years of very hard work to change the team culture into something we could be proud of. Trying to create a new team culture can be just as hard. What happens when you create a new team with a few friends and new people join and feel left out because of how tight knit the existing group is? It is easy to say "we won't let that happen" but I know from experience that it is far easier to let it happen than not. Please consider that it is probably harder to start and build a lasting team than change one that already exists in your 4 year tenure. At some point you will be the upper classmen and can change things to be more like how you wished they were.
