It's not just materials, either. Our students have a much more sophisticated sense of design and VEX parts capability now than the students did four years ago. The students of 2006-7 simply didn't have the accumulated expertise of four years to draw on. I know that our Hangin' Around robots look like farm implements compared to those they built for Elevation and Clean Sweep.
