Team Governance

[Nita]

I'm not sure if anyone else noticed this, but I find it interesting that in the first and the last two options, it says, 'My team' and for the middle two, 'Our team'. But anyway, my team didn't really have student leaders this year. Meetings were held to discuss different issues and to make decisions for the team. Right now, I need to get ready to leave for next class, so maybe I'll edit this post when I get home.

I would like my team to be more student run than it currently is.

One of the many things that FIRST gets right is the caliber of the people involved, judges, regional directors, volunteers, FIRST senior mentors, you name it - the caliber is there. The integrity is there.

I re-read your post before I wrote this. It was a thoughtful and polite post from someone who was excited about the FIRST experience and who would like to help his team develop and grow. Nothing wrong with that.
