[Campus-berkeley-staff] publicity & sign ups

[Shauna Gordon-McKeon]

Hi Daylen,

It's probably worth adding a reminder to the Facebook group that to
register for the event they need to fill out the sign up form. There are
143 people signed up as going on FB and only 60 who have filled out the
google docs.
