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.
