[Candace Cheney]

Shauna,

Sorry I didn't answer all of these questions. I also didn't see that you
wanted to invite non-PSU students as well. I would prefer this as well. I
was an English major when I stumbled upon the CAT environment. I didn't
know anything about computers, and I especially didn't know what Linux or
Open Source was. Now, I'm learning html, css and python. I have already
contributed in small ways to Ubuntu.

The CAT is no longer admitting non-Engineering and Computer Science
students in their program. I'm not sure why. I think they prefer people who
are taking those routes in their education. I will get more information
about your questions today.

Candace

"Don't aim at success - the more you aim at it and make it a target, the
more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be
pursued; it must ensue... as the unintended side-effect of one's personal
dedication to a course greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's
surrender to a person other than oneself. Happiness must happen, and the
same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it.
...success will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think of
it." Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning
