We are more than just a robot...
Our mission is to design, build, code, compete, and work together to accomplish our goals.
We encompass Gracious Professionalism: a way of doing things that encourages high-quality work, emphasizes the value of others, and respects individuals and the community. With Gracious Professionalism, fierce competition and mutual gain are not separate notions. Gracious professionals learn and compete like crazy but treat one another with respect and kindness in the process.
