Even a quick hack would be a huge help. That way, no one falls through the cracks and I can meet new organizers and point them to the resources they need. <br><br clear="all"><font size="2"><font size="1"><font size="2">ALISON</font><br>

I've seen a few people ask for notification of new courses/groups. Is there a way we could implement a "hack" for Ali (doesn't need to be very nice - just to make sure she can keep track)? Alternatively, if there is a way to get this information from the django admin interface, that could also work for now.<div>

Will encourage Jamie to run this on new.p2pu.<br>
<br>Also, I would love an email like Jessica's recommendation to go out, but in return I'd LOVE to receive notifications about new study groups being created first. I like to personalize emails to new organizers sometimes if I see something particularly interesting/notable right away.<br>

Maybe it could be part of "Welcome! My name is Bob, and I help people new to Peer 2 Peer University. I see you created a course. If you need any help: help desk stuff. Just out of curiosity, where did you hear about us? If you need anything, please let me know! Yours, Bob."<div>

It may have been through Webcraft promotion - but I can't lay direct claim. <br><br>Not sure if we should make this a survey or a sign-up question but it would be good to find out where people are hearing about the project from...<br>
