Check out the Mozilla Study Group Handbook's outreach templates: one to get the word out, and one to call for instructors.
Yes - and feel free to send me comments on those templates too! Would love to learn from how U of T is executing on this, and have your experience help shape the Handbook.
Sorry I missed the planning session, but have you looked at UofT's clubs day / street fest?

This may be more frosh oriented than your audience, but I've always gotten a good amount of contacts there.
That's a great idea!
At this point we won't be able to do the Club's day because we are not a recognized UofT group. Only those who are recognized can register to be part of the club's day. Given the timeline, it might not be feasible this year to do it, but later years we should definitely do this.
Agreed. If anyone is interested in helping with recognition and funding applications, check out issue #6.
They usually have another clubs event in January :) Getting group status is probably a good route.
Reminder! If you emailed your departmental mailing list with an announcement about the group, comment here so that I don't repeat your department when I send out more emails on Monday.
Thanks for the reminder. I've sent it to the Department of Nutritional Sciences.
I've sent one to Astronomy & Astrophysics.
Physiology has received the email as well.

The new academic year is almost upon us! This issue is a place to discuss, plan, and share strategies and materials for getting the word out about the Study Group.
In June, many of you got an email from your department with a link to the repo and issue tracker and a link to this survey.
I also posted an announcement similar to the one below to the GSU mailing list which goes to all grad students:
Questions for you:
