Having these resources available for Campus Ambassadors is crucial as
well, I think. Getting Fedora deployed in the classroom is a fantastic
way to begin exposing people to Linux and Fedora for the first time, in
many cases, and it should definitely be a key part of our strategy for this.
Are there existing resources about the technical details for what a
Campus Ambassador could share with campus faculty or administration for
going about making a Fedora computer lab?
Maybe do we have examples of places where this has been done already
successfully? A successful case example would be a great tool to help
convince wary administrators or faculty to consider making the switch.
Additionally, another detail about the wiki revision is the note about
how Campus Ambassadors fit into the puzzle in relation to regular
Ambassadors. There's a few details that are different in how it's
structured, so getting feedback on this side of things would also help
considerably.
Thanks again, all!

Hi Ardian,
Very glad to hear you're interested! Thoughts, opinions, and
brainstorming will be very useful in getting this running and back off
the ground.
Getting some badges especially would be a great idea for this. Coming up
with on-boarding badges is part of what CommOps can help identify and
help with, so I am CC'ing the CommOps list to put it on the radar.
