Many thanks,The campus office that organizes student events is excited about the possibility of this event and would help us promote it on campus. I'm hoping this will get us a pretty great turnout. Is there a Wikimedian who would be willing to be our expert guide on one of these dates? We'll be providing either lunch or some coffee and snacks, and I'd be happy to pull out some treasures from the University Archives (such as a letter re: slavery from 19th century students, surgical instruments from our infamous lobotomist, and a football uniform from when we had a team!)Hi Wikimedians!We are very excited for the upcoming DC History editathon. We have been discussing the possibility of holding an "All Things GW" editathon on April 13 or 20 to engage GW students and alumni. We would likely make this a shorter event, from 12 or 12:30-4, since it's a busy time of year for students.
