The Campus Ambassador and Online Ambassador programs are off to a fantastic start. Congratulations! -- Ssilvers (talk) 01:37, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
- I think it is a great concept, but I really hope it is expanded to more than Public Policy as a field. I am impressed for instance with the experiments done in AP Biology classes. Think those sorts of things can be extremely positive for Wiki and for the students. Also, think it is important to figure out how to take the learnings and procedures and such from this experiment and transfer them to work with unis in general. Including when there are not the $$ as was in this case. Don't get me wrong, I'm super glad something was done. Just want it to go somewhere.TCO (reviews needed) 18:24, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
- We are already stepping beyond that. Currently Regional Ambassadors, who are volunteers coordinating professors and ambassadors see http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_Regional_Ambassadors), are looking beyond Public Policy to find faculty for the upcoming semester, and semesters afterwards. Do not be suprised if one of the next classes ends up attaching itself to one of you favourite WikiProjects :) If you have recommendations on faculty to work with, be sure to contact one of the Regional Ambassadors, Sadads (talk) 21:19, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
