Yes? why only university? wazza matter with the younger set? i have worked with some bitchin' good 15 year olds that became senior geeks over the years. ------------------------------------------------------------ I only repeated what I saw on the link. Trying to not toss too much confusion into the fray. I am just looking for a way to get younger new members into the org. They always have little money and no employer to pay for them. I knew some part time students that were doing CS while working to support their family and they wanted a way to show potential future employers they are working harder than the 'other guy' to bust into the industry and get a good job. I just hope NewNOG can support that. College is tough. It seems like we would want to get these folks in early and have them stick around throughout their careers. The money lost to the discount will come back into the org in the long run. scott ps. do the initial members get a cool cert showing us as OGs? :-) _______________________________________________ Nanog-futures mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.nanog.org/mailman/listinfo/nanog-futures
