QotW 08-31-03: Making the cut.

[Matt Krass]

On my team we just let the people come, by the time build rolled around we weeded out most of the slackers. By a week or so in the rest was gone. We only had like 10 to 15 people left by nationals I think. We started with a good amount, don't recall how many. Anyway I think there shouldn't be any rejection of students, if they're not gonan work for it then in the end they lose. We have only enough money to take certain people to nationals and thats what we did, drive team, programmers and mechanical heads. They worked the hardest and know it best. The rest of the team was more than welcome to join in on the regional and offseasons though. You don't need to weed out the kids who jsut want the trip and the like. It happens on it's own.
