Website Front Page XHTML Compliant

Earlier today, there were many errors with our HTML coding and it produced all tons of errors on the w3 validator. But now, after editing many lines of code and removing unneccessary clutter, the website is now compliant (at least the front page is).

Hopefully, we will keep it this way since our web team highly values web standards.

All PR/FR work day this Wednesday, 1/27

Hey guys!

I know a lot of the PR kids have been confused about what they should be doing during build season. Fortunately, we have lots of new, high-profile work to do! This Wednesday, we ask that all PR/FR members attend at our regular meeting time. We will being assigning new duties, (so if you’re sick of companies or grants, be sure to show up). First come first serve!

If you’re interested in doing interesting, high-profile work, now’s the time to really start working. Your efforts in publicity and communications will be imperative to the success of the team this season!

Finals OVER!!!!!

Now that finals are over we can all focus our power on building the robot.
We’re having a build meeting on Saturday from 4pm to 9pm at STI!
and from 1pm to 5pm on Sunday!

Please try to come to at least one of the meetings! This is valuable time for everyone to work on the robot!

No meeting Wednesday + Long meeting Friday

Since most of us need to focus on finals we will not be having a robotics meeting this coming Wednesday (1/20/10) and instead on Friday (1/22/10) we will have an extra long robotics meeting from 1 -5pm in Mr. cooney’s room.
there will be A LOT to work on and make-up, and since finals are over, everyone should be able to come.
notice:  School ends at 11:40 so that gives everyone an hour and 20 minutes to eat lunch! =]

Meeting this saturday

Meeting at STI optronics from 2:00pm to 5:00pm
We will be coming to a consensus on a design and figuring out the flaws by testing it out on a field.
ALL BUILD MEMBERS MUST BE THERE!
