Attention Fellows in California, Arizona, Oregon, and Texas,
I saw the announcement below on a listserv and found the Intel website with
contact information at

people are all located in universities/school districts and email addresses
are given. Couldn't find out more about the program on this site (it's for
press releases), but email to the contact people might lead to something.....
