Are you still thinking about contacting colleges directly?

I’m wondering about the effectiveness of this “campaign”. How likely is it that we find students that:

a) are already familiar with the WP codebase (as is preferred)
b) and haven’t heard of GSoC already

?

  It’s more to catch attention of students who just haven’t gotten around to doing anything yet re applications. Intended audience already knows what it is.

    Ah, so it’s intended more as a reminder. Makes sense then.
