Having these resources available for Campus Ambassadors is crucial as well, I think. Getting Fedora deployed in the classroom is a fantastic way to begin exposing people to Linux and Fedora for the first time, in many cases, and it should definitely be a key part of our strategy for this. Are there existing resources about the technical details for what a Campus Ambassador could share with campus faculty or administration for going about making a Fedora computer lab? Maybe do we have examples of places where this has been done already successfully? A successful case example would be a great tool to help convince wary administrators or faculty to consider making the switch. Additionally, another detail about the wiki revision is the note about how Campus Ambassadors fit into the puzzle in relation to regular Ambassadors. There's a few details that are different in how it's structured, so getting feedback on this side of things would also help considerably. Thanks again, all! -- Cheers, Justin W.

Hi Ardian, Very glad to hear you're interested! Thoughts, opinions, and brainstorming will be very useful in getting this running and back off the ground. Getting some badges especially would be a great idea for this. Coming up with on-boarding badges is part of what CommOps can help identify and help with, so I am CC'ing the CommOps list to put it on the radar. -- Cheers, Justin W. Flory jflory7(a)gmail.com

Hello all, Recently, in FAmNA, we have been discussing a proposed way to revitalize the Campus Ambassadors program. https://fedorahosted.org/famna/ticket/123 To help finalize the process, I have put together a new draft of the Campus Ambassadors wiki page. It would be great to have others' ideas, thoughts, and feedback about the rewrite. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Jflory7/Scratchpad/Campus_Ambassadors Thanks! -- Cheers, Justin W.
