Re: What does your school think of robotics?

For those of you who think you have it rough, meet the (gasp) homeschoolers. At least two teams are pretty much all homeschoolers (1315 & 330). Homeschoolers have to: 1) rustle up funding from wherever they can find it and
2) Find a place to build.
On the other hand, you know most of the people in your group, at least by sight and name, and they know you, so you don't have to put up with the nerd and geek stuff as much. Unless you're already one.
It's also a little easier in the recruiting department, though not much. Administration? Parents of the students, for the most part. They leave us alone or help out.
