[Ccsf-campus-staff] bringing Open Source Comes to Campus back to City College of San Francisco

I vote for Google Hangouts as I think we can talk faster than we can type
(or at least I can), as long as you can patch me in via my cell phone [will
send number to either Shauna or Geoffrey off the mailing list] (let me know
if this doesn't work the way I hope it will):

Invite a phone participant to a video call:
https://support.google.com/plus/answer/2520614?hl=en

I'm available this week during the day (generally between 10a - 4p Pacific
Time), so Tuesday should be fine...on Tuesday, I'm available 11:30a - 4p
Pacific Time.

Shauna and/or Geoffrey, would you make an agenda for the call?  One item
I'd like to add to the agenda: once we've done introductions & covered the
logistical questions that OpenHatch has, I'd like to talk about the
curriculum (see concerns previously raised in this mail to the
ccsf-campus-staff list:
http://lists.openhatch.org/pipermail/ccsf-campus-staff/2014-January/000062.html
).

Logistical update:

   - Have secured same space for Sat 3/22
   - Have secured $500 honorarium -- our Fulbright program manager arranged
   for funds from the U.S. State Dept's cultural & education funds (a possible
   source of funding on other campuses that have international students
   studying in related fields on Fulbright grants)

(I hope to) talk to everyone some time Tuesday.

Regards,

Katherine
