Self-Introduction: Mel Chua

Hey there! I'm https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Mchua, a (relatively) new Fedoran, recently from Olin College (http://www.olin.edu) in Needham, Massachusetts (USA). (I (like) pare(nthe)ses). John Rose pointed me towards the Campus Ambassadors program - university outreach is a big interest of mine, having graduated as an electrical engineer not too long ago and also having spent about 2 years working on university programmes at OLPC (http://wiki.laptop.org/go/University_chapters) - I'd love to talk with folks about what you're working on and whether any of the lessons we learned or materials we made for the OLPC groups might be useful here. I also work on http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/POSSE, which is a program for university professors who want to get their classes involved in open source projects - so instead of doing a problem set, maybe you'd triage some stuff in bugzilla, for example. Would anyone be interested in trying to get a POSSE to happen in their school sometime this year (or next summer)? I'm mchua on #fedora-* (I'm always in #fedora-mktg when I'm online) so feel free to ping either there or on email! --Mel
