As a student, you should treat such crisis as opportunites. A bad way to handle teammates that do not shoulder their share is to quarrel with them and take their share too without trying to negotiate a settlement. You should at least get their point of view in a coolheaded manner. Even if you cannot win them over for the cause, you will improve your communication skills and you will have stories to tell in interviews. Watch this video for tips.
