Fishing for feedback here. Do we not qualify because sometimes we do,
but sometimes we don't?
There is a lot of gray area on our site. Some pages are 100% student. Others
were 100% student but they graduated and this year's kids (or myself) tweaked a little to make it 2003 compliant.
Also the
ideas for the site comes from everywhere- students, engineers, alumni, CD Users, friends, visiting other websites, etc... But most times the StUDentS just dont have the technical background to put the page together (or not in a timely manner) so Mike or I (now engineers, but former students) do the coding, BUT, as best we can, do it in front of them or explain it afterwards so they learn for next time.
Also, web dev for us is two pieces: the SQL code to get the data and the HTML/CF to present it. The kids spent most of the time on the SQL and CF. Character %-wise that is very small compared to the HTML, so how do you rate that?
Also, some SOAP Pages are just links to movies. I did the CF for it, but the StUDentS are the ones spending mad hours of time at the regionals and back home digitizing and uploading them. So, again, more gray area.
