Re: do you guys attend classes regularly during the time between kickoff and shipment

Wow, I am in envy of those people whose schools cut them any slack in any way. While most of our teachers and staff support the team, academics are always a priority. We always have a semester change in the middle of the season, and I had an easy first semester, so I had lots of time for robotics, then second semester rolled around, and Calculus came into my life. Now I have much less time available, but spend the same time at robotics. Not the best idea I have ever had. The upshot? I attend all my classes and robotics and lose sleep.
