Dear Bostonians,
There is a party this Saturday at Simmons College for the first annual
Wikipedia in Higher Ed Summit! It's the first such event focused on
Wikipedia, and organized by the Wikimedia public policy initiative
team.
A lot of Wikimedians will be there - from the WMF, our ED Sue Gardner
is coming, as is Barry, and Rod Dunican & Frank and everyone involved
in the PPI effort. From the Campus Ambassadors, a whole new crop will
be there. And the profs and some students who have taken part in the
program over the past year have all been invited; most are attending.
The event itself tomorrow and Saturday is by invitation, and focused
on people who are deeply familiar with PPI and the ambassador program.
(If you desperately want to attend let me know.) The party Sat.
night is open to local Wikimedians -- with light food, drink, and
rumours of dancing. RSVP if you can come.
