End of Week 1

Today is the beginning of Week 2, and we're moving along pretty well.

The ConOps has been created, and preliminary designs begun, plans today are for getting the documents prepared for the Preliminary Design Review (PDR) set for tomorrow at 7PM.

Several engineers from my company are participating, the students are apprehensive, so it's time for the "they're not here to shoot you down" talk. We seem to be in a better position this year than last, there are SO many members showing up and engaged.

As usual, that are some malcontents, and one in particular who will not agree with anyone about anything. You say up, he will say down. He's really getting on my nerves and I want to deny him his 15 minutes at every turn of the way. But, that's not what a mentor is made of, not a decent one anyway.
