I'd be glad to help out whatever way(s) I can.  For reference, I am a senior
CS/Chem double major.  Last time I walked into the science building with a
Tux shirt on, I got a few snickers and a snide remark from the CS faculty :)
(perhaps the grad faculty is more receptive?)  The closest thing to a Linux
box I've used on campus (that wasn't in my dorm room) is the OSX machines in
our chem lab :)

I think an installfest at St. Thomas would be great.

Hey I'd be glad to help with organizing an InstallFest at St Thomas.
We're a
complete M$ house, and I know that the students and faculty both would
welcome the opportunity to speak with some Linux gurus, get some setup
help,
etc. Give me some info/contacts and I'll run with it. We should do it at
the
beginning of the semester before things really get cooking (i.e. within
the
next month or so).
