The role of mentors on teams is the single biggest hot button topic in FIRST. I would urge you to search on the forums for the opinions of many others as soon as the topic is brought up it quickly evolves into a Student-Built v.s. Engineer Built debate and the discussion never goes anywhere.

As for my opinion, listen to the EWCP podcast where they interview Karthik, he talks about how they use mentors. Love 1114 or hate them they have gotten the school and community to buy into the program and made it sustainable which is your goal.
