thx matt
one of my closest friend & colleagues is the manager of platforms and IT over at the harvard business school (gary wallace)
he stopped by last year's event, and saw the poor attendance,
if jonathan can advertise on campus, and the students will be around, maybe this year will be better,
i will still give talks and we could do a mini fudcon, not sure if it will drive interest, but we can try again
thx for the help matt

i think the issues facing NELF are timing, venue, advertising, and audience. basically, the event usually takes place during breaks, and most students are gone. the campus does not allow advertising which also inhibits attendance. this is why less than 100 people are in attendance.
Looks like it's not over Harvard's break this year at least.
I have some connections at Harvard and I can see what I can do to drum up a little interest. ABCD
