Is there really inspiration in teams?

[phrontist]

All of our alumni thus far have gone on to college, most of them into an engineering discipline.

• Virginia Tech - Electrical Engineering
• University of Michigan - Aeronautic
• Cal Poly Ponoma - Physics/EE? (I forget what he decided on)
• Virginia Tech - Engineering (Mech... I think)
• Rensselaer - Triple major Math/Aero/Mechanical (His nickname was "the team")
• Virginia Tech - Engineering (I have no idea what field)
• Hartford - Cinema
• University of Kentucky - Undecided
• Earlham - Not engineering

We are student run, with some fields being done entirely by students. Programming/Electrical have never had any mentor involvement, other than "Hey, your code is making the motors turn the wrong way!" . Mechanical has seen significantly more mentor involvement. In the end, the robot is designed by the collective, with input being considered regardless of it's source.
