** In an effort to get more students and professors interested in open source software and inspire them to join the Mozilla Community, we will be working with the Mozilla Campus Reps program to reach out to high schools and universities around the world.  We plan to build a Mozilla University website that will be a landing page for anyone interested in getting started with Mozilla.  From there, we can educate folks on the basics, and point them to more valuable online resources to help them become active members of the Mozilla Community.
