 * Leanna: continue council work from last semester – easier ways to do the audio recording/uploading (is it still possible to have a file converter implemented to make life easier for everyone? Fred will take care of this). Wants to connect with “real world things” – getting involved in languages, putting resources from the language students on each language page. Willing to set up “hampedia how-to” meetings to help recruit/interest other students (especially first years).
