Re: Conflict with Mentor

As a student mentor to this team, I have to bring out a few misrepresentations.

Presenters were not identified until the night before (I'm talking like midnight) they were actually going to present, due to poor organization of the project. With the help of the new student, who put in A LOT of time with myself to learn about the process of chairman's and the team. The presentation was completed, visual display was completed, and oral presentation was created, outlined, prepared and practiced throughly by both myself, the lead mentor and other team members including the "new" student.
Just because a team member was not physically at your build site and working on the robot does not mean that they were new and/or not involved, so please, next time make sure you have all of your information before making accusations. I agree dirty laundry should not be aired, I suggest that you talk to the mentor in a professional manner if this is still bothering you.

Also, this mentor was not absent for 2 weeks, this is a gross inflation. He was always either in contact or reachable with a response within at most, an hour. Reguardless, Chief Delphi is NOT the place for this.
