Re: facilities

Even with our rookie status, we got really lucky - one of the branch campuses of the local college (M-TECH, not michigan tech, they need to come up with a better acronym or something) has a department that pretty much has dedicated itself to our project after school hours (it helps that all three of the instructors there are team mentors). Anyways we have a computer lab/conference room, and a rather well equipped room for building and the like. Though I dont really know how much fabrication we'd be able to do. Of course its only week one, and no one ahs really shown us around yet, I know that other parts of the campus there have all kinds of facilities, since its an engineering/manufacturing building in the first place.
