If you graduate productive citizens of the world who willingly want to give back not only to the FIRST community but to society as a whole you are successful.
Success can be neasured in more than just a trophy. It can be measured in the difference your team makes in the world around it.
definately all of that, but somethings that I think are a must for having a successful team are:
-repsect for eachother (students to mentors, and mentors to engineers)
-individuality, but at the same time teamwork, becuase without the unique concepts of an individual, its impossible to brainstorm; but at the same time teamwork, cooperatition, and being open to new ideas
-have fun!!! if you're not having fun, its hard to be successful
-and last but not least,pizza, our team would not be successfull without pizza
