[Sigia-l] Re: Mentors

[Rachel Powers]

There is an excellent mentor program with BayCHI. They offer a mentor 
program and an apprentice program, which includes a Yahoo group, 
meetings and online chats.

Mentees must be a member of BayCHI and enrolled in a HCI-related degree 
program. For more info, contact:
mentoring at baychi.org
