How Do You Treat New Members/Freshmen ?

[Aaron Lussier]

Nashua Possibly has the wierdest school system ever. Ours goes like this K-6 , 7-9 , then 10-12. Pretty funny huh Any way this mean when ever new people come to school they are all ready sophmores. During Orientation day we have about 120 people sign up for the team, After we get through team buildings and stuff we have weeded out about 50 or 60 of them. That leaves about 60 brand new people which the vets have to contend with to deal with this we run through the first two weeks giving them the worst jobs that we can think of we dont make them get drinks or anything just stuff dealing with the robot like clean the mech room and start deburring parts when them start coming in. By the end of the six weeks we have shrunk the team to almost 60 total including vets and engineers. Its seems to work good for us. Got to go now I would type more but I have to go rock climbing.
