[Iabs-talk] February 18, 2018 NFBI Board Meeting 7 pm

[Patti Chang]

This does not need to go on our formal published agenda but we do need to
decide how to publicize and how to administer the three buddy program slots
we prepaid for. We could for example offer them first to our Freedom Link
participants and then to attendees of our student seminar. We could develop
an application form. Anyway you get the notion.
