> You might not remember me--I don't believe I had any classes with you, and I was only a group major (Physics/CS), not a full major--but I was a student in the class of 2002.  Now I'm at a company in Philadelphia called Azavea that's running a summer fellowship program for software engineers, focused on open source.  See https://fellowship.azavea.com/ <https://fellowship.azavea.com/>.
> 
> This summer will be the second time we've done this program, though there's a GIS summer fellowship that's been going for longer and that had a Calvin grad in 2016 (http://www.summerofmaps.com/ <http://www.summerofmaps.com/>).
> 
> The program is open to people between years, though I think people who are graduating might have the best shot, both because the proposed projects are somewhat ambitious and because there's some recruiting motivation (one of the fellows from last summer was hired on).  I'm in the pool of potential mentors, but I'm not involved in the selection process.
> 
> Anyway, if there's a department list or board for things like this, could you share the page on there?  I think it's an interesting and worthwhile program, and it would be cool to have another Calvin student in this little corner of the world.

> Thanks,
