RPI and RIT have had the same spring break for years. When this happens, RPI typically schedules their event for the start of spring break and RIT for the end of spring break. The events have almost always been back to back, and will almost certainly not be on the same weekend.

In other news, yay, I have a four day spring break this year that covers both of my high school team's probable events (Mount Olive and Bridgewater).

Welcome to being a Shaker Robotics mentor in college! My advice is to not go home at all, because you'll probably spend all four of those days off machining and implementing upgrades anyway. This mandatory back-to-back regional schedule is brought to you by the ever growing march toward districts in every state that isn't New York, and FIRST's stubborn refusal to allow anyone to join a district that isn't within the arbitrarily drawn borders they came up with. FIRST - valuing the team experience above all else since... uh... never, I guess.
