No, really, I'm not disappointed...

I know this is a 'what we learned' thread, but I disagree with that. Our mentor quit during week 2 and our school administration told us that we couldn't go on because they were worried about the "Integrity of the school," and we still completed a bot.
So I guess I learned that every snag can be overcome.
