UMIT has a thing in Engineer's Week where campus orgs and others can do info booths in a tent outside the building. Something similar may be allowed during orientation. Call the IT Dean's office and ask. Might do better in the CS Dept Office, but I'd rather see TCLUG develop some signs of life in apps outside CS sys admin areas... such as Octave and scientific applications that are truly enabled by Linux and out of reach in Winders. Hmmm.. I know an ex pres of the UMIT Alum society who can spell Linux (he's a PhD SW guru). He would know how/whether to open doors there. I'm not really an alum, but got talked into joining the alum soc for a few years. Why not St Thomas also? St Thomas might be much more receptive. Just do an InstallFest on campus (UMN, St Thom, Stout, River Falls). THAT would get publicity enough. --- Chuck > -----Original Message----- > From: tclug-list-admin at mn-linux.org > [mailto:tclug-list-admin at mn-linux.org]On Behalf Of Bob Tanner > Sent: Wednesday, August 28, 2002 10:40 PM > To: tclug-list at mn-linux.org > Subject: [TCLUG] UofM's incomming freshmen class + linux? > Importance: High > > > Any of you UofM people have any ideas on how we can let the > new incoming > freshmen know about tclug? > > Any place we can put cheap plugs? > > If not cheap-plugs, how about payed-plugs.
