== What is the Campus Ambassadors program? ==

* To build up individual Fedora communities on campuses, and provide
resources for students to organize events and contribute their code
and ideas to Fedora.
* To help students network with other open source and Fedora
contributors, and lay the groundwork for potential summer internships
* To create a fun and exciting network of passionate, dedicated people
to spearhead Fedora's presence on college campuses
* To work with faculty and students both to promote free and open
source software on campus

The Fedora Campus Ambassadors program receive many benefits, amongst
the following:

technologies
