[Campus-princeton-staff] [EMAIL DRAFT -- please send suggestions/edits] Contribute to Open Source on Nov 22nd!

[Lisha Ruan]

I think remotely would be okay. Catherine, I'm just not sure where you got
those specific projects from?

Besides the two who signed up, we also have Sunil from Two Sigma who's
confirmed. We're talking to Bloomberg, who said they can provide mentors,
and ThoughtWorks, who said maybe, but no one's signed up yet. I'm hoping
we'll get at least 2 more mentors, so at least 5, which I think would be
doable -- but of course it'd be great to have more.
