[Campus-bucknell-staff] curriculum for Saturday

Shauna Gordon-McKeon shaunagm at gmail.com
Sat Oct 18 14:31:41 UTC 2014 

Just get started, and designate 1 or 2 mentors to greet any latecomers as
they come on.

You could also do an additional reminder email to those who haven't come
yet.

How low is low?  How many sign-ups did you have?  (You did not use the
google docs sign-up form so I cannot see how many you have.)
