In terms of documentation, I wanted to direct you all to the draft
University programming plan currently in development. The general plan
describing the overall need and approach towards university program work
can be found at the outreach wiki:
http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Global_University_Program
Four different models are outlined as ways to reach universities: via
classrooms, student groups, university staff, and outside constituents.
The local Wikimedian Community/chapter falls into this last category,
and the suggestions/activities you recorded here are great examples of
involvement. There is a shell of page for this created on outreach as
well:
http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/External_approach_-_example_activities
It would be great to capture some of these thoughts on this last page
specifically!
Thanks again -
Jessie
