[Campus-bucknell-staff] picking a location

It will be great fantastic if we can have Marina and people from Mozila
give a career panel! Sunlight Foundation and Center of Open Science are
also great options! GSoC and OPW are great and well-known programs and I
believe they will attract a lot of people too.

Last year we invited two Bucknell graduates who are now working in Google
to give a talk and it was a great success. So I think it will be more
attractive if we can have people working in companies like
Google/Amazon/Microsoft give a panel on open source projects they are
involved in and how the projects help them got their jobs. But the
resources we are having right now are already great enough for us to host a
successful event!
