Recruiting Students

These are great ideas. Please remember that some of us are introverts and may not feel very comfortable in new situations, or in any social situation. We may need some one-on-one or small group initiations before we are accepting of the group. It doesn't mean we aren't interested in what's going on, so please don't write us off!

Right, some of our best members didn't come to us through group meetings, but were dragged to the team by their friend that thought it would be a good fit for them. More often than not, said friend was right.

Our school has a little club fair, so all the students get to see all the clubs that are available and when we talk to the student body about robotics, we always make sure to tell them about business since our business team is small. In my opinion, the best way to recruit people on your team is to get people on your team to go recruit their friends and classmates because it is easier to join a club when you can do it with a friend or someone you know.
