Hi Ambassadors,
I wanted to draw your attention to the stories of two of our students,
whom I've recently posted to the Wikimedia blog.
Patrick Friedel:

--Patrick wrote the article on the National Democratic Party of Egypt,
which was where thousands of people turned to for information on
Mubarak's party during the Arab Spring.
Kasey Baker:

--Kasey had a great experience with his Online Ambassador, so major
kudos to User:VisionHolder.
Feel free to continue suggesting excellent students you worked with
that we can profile on the WMF blog like this by emailing me off-list.
