Basically, we wanted to make sure that (1) POSSE cohort members could at least travel to the TOS event they most wanted to attend, and (2) each major TOS event had some funding set aside for people who *weren't* POSSE cohort members. I run the first budget, and every POSSE 2011 cohort member has $1.6k of course funding set aside for them, which they can choose to use to get or send students to these events if they like. This is separate from the funding process Sebastian just opened, so if you're a POSSE 2011 cohort member and were planning on using part of your stipend to attend one of these events, you don't need to apply for funding -- just go, and once you complete your POSSE requirements I can reimburse you for receipts you save. Sebastian runs the second budget, and he's just opened up applications for funding for the first 3 events this summer/school-year. 2011 POSSE cohort members *can* still apply for travel funding from this pool, but we know who y'all are and you might want to explain why you really, really need all $1.6k of your course funding for Something Else. ;) Please ask us if you've got any questions! --Mel _______________________________________________ tos mailing list tos@teachingopensource.org http://teachingopensource.org/mailman/listinfo/tos
