[University-chapters] What do you need?

[April-Hope Wareham]

Hi all--I'm April-Hope Wareham from the University of Tulsa, and I used to
be at IMSA with Kevin.  I am just going through my Freshman orientation now,
and I want to spark interest in OLPC, whatever it takes.  So...cool stuff
like t-shirts, maybe?  I haven't even learned how to start a club yet, but I
found a professor with an XO in his office...  :-D
