This year (MojaveRobotics2006), we started with about 16 students. The stress of build season has whittled the team down to about 12 hardy souls. We have seven 2-year participants, and 4 first-years.

The Captain is responsible for a team meeting 2x per week during build season, and as required during off season, but no less than once per month. Each of the individual positions below will have 5 minutes to brief the status of their section. What is done. What needs to be done. What help they need. What problems they forsee.
