It is not right to waste the time of other students that want to learn, the teachers who put in the extra time to help us out and the mentors coming from work not getting paid but are there just about every night to help us out.
If someone wants to be on the team they have to prove that they are commited to the team and just won't lose interest in a week or two, or only show up for trips to events.

i agree that there are many on teams that just come to hang out and they don't deserve to be there but... giving them the initial opportunity to try is different then telling them from the start that they can't
i think that a good way to eliminate people is to assign preseason projects to small groups and seeing who works and who doesn't. this will also give you a heads up on mechanism ideas for future robots.
