[Campus-gmu-staff] Publicity mailings update

[jrouly at masonlive.gmu.edu]

Yeah it surprised me as well.? I guess the count would depend on the number of attendees -- if we (liberally) round up to 50, and assume each power strip supports (conservatively) 5 people, I think 8-10 would be a good round number of power strips. SRCT currently owns one that we can volunteer.

?

Just emailed a ton of people re: mentoring at the event - I have high hopes for a big group of mentors working on interesting projects.  :)

re: power strips - how many power strips will be needed?  I'm honestly a little surprised that there's not a physical plant type office you can borrow them from.  We'll see what we can do.

Hi all,


Quick update on the status of publicity / outreach.


I contacted relevant departments at Mason (around 10) to get on their mailing lists, and a number of people have already signed up as a result. More departmental mailings will probably be sent out today (I know our engineering school mailing list is on Mondays). I've also reached out to the members in the Women in Engineering group on campus, but I'm not sure what their status is.


I've drafted an email to the GMU alum who runs open source at Google and will send that out once I get some feedback from the SRCT executive board.


I looked into acquiring power strips, and it looks like we'll need to purchase our own. Is there any way OpenHatch could cover funds for this? If not, we can put in another funding request, but it might take up to two weeks for approval, and even then we might not get approved. Not sure if there's another way to go about obtaining them.


Best,

Michel
