[Campus-princeton-staff] I'm interested in helping out at the Princeton event on 11/22

Wed Nov 12 03:31:34 UTC 2014

Thanks Peter.  I've added to the Chris to the Princeton mailing list as
well.  It's a bit busy with logistical trivia right now, so feel free to
ignore it - anything you need to see will be prefaced with [PLEASE READ] or
[MENTORS] or something else allcapsy.

Feel free to ask any questions you have to this list in general, or me in
particular.

best
Shauna
