Re: If All Mentors Stopped Posting In Chief Delphi...

Discussions regarding student-led and mentor-led teams frequent the ChiefDelphi fora. The discussions seem to end by trailing off, never coming to any conclusion. The closest we arrive to is an understanding that teams are free to choose how they organize, develop, and who the team is led by.

Many of the posts in this thread point to the differences the absence of engineers and mentors would make in Chief Delphi, specifically in the technical areas. It is the same in teams. By inviting engineers and mentors to be a part of your team and partnering with them in building a robust team and robot for the FRC competition and program, it brings added value, depth, strength, expertise, and wisdom to the team and to the overall experience.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts in this thread.

Jane

Can you imagine how many robots would probably STILL be on fire if Al weren't around? I wince a little just thinking about it...
