By placing an adult mentor in the coaching role on the field you are depriving a student of the experience.
where they belong? were they on the sidelines at any other portion of the build? if not then why would this be an exception to the rest of the build period?

did they get less of an experience building the robot because of the involvement of mentors? it seems what is lost somewhere is that this is not a program where the student are on their own all the time.....it is meant to have mentor involvement, for "Inspiration".....

did you miss dave's speech during the kickoff about what separates this from other similar competitions?
