What clubs, student organizations, and athletic teams do you know of that have more individualized policies?

We have to also keep in mind that FIRST teams in schools are a good thing, not a bad thing. We should hope to keep the welcome mat out and firmly in place rather than wear out that welcome. It's up to the team to do its part to work with their school and keep it positive and working towards a support network of faculty and administrators helping the team succeed.
