[Campus-neiu-staff] MENTORS: hello!

[Shauna Gordon-McKeon]

Meg - so the contributions section is somewhat self-guided, in that mentors
lead small groups of students contributing to specific projects while other
mentors float & help.

That said, we need someone to introduce the activity.  I think it would
also be great if you could demonstrate to students how to:
- pick a project
- find out information about it and evaluate it
- make contact with the community
- try and find an issue to work on

If you feel comfy doing that, we can go over what would be involved.  :)

I'd be happy to have MediaGoblin be something to work on at the event.
 It's such a great project.
