Re: Linux in high schools.

["Mike Casteel" <mikecasteel@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Im a CIS major at WMU and If anything develops of this... I would like to be
notified.  If my schedule permits  I would definatly want to learn more
about Linux (I already took a class at KVCC "CS112", WMU doesnt offering any
education related to Linux that I know of).

Areas of interest would be Networking, Server uses, and Security.

PLEASE contact me if this develops into something or if you need a
volunteer.
