Hi all,

I'm Sheila Miguez, another Chicago person, and I was very inspired to run
some events after watching a talk[1] by Asheesh and Jessica a while back
about the Boston group.

I help run python office hours at my hackerspace[2] as well as a monthly
python project night hosted at Braintree. Once or twice a year depending on
student availability I help run Open Sources Comes to Campus[3]. It's not
strictly python, but the projects section has been all python due to
founder effect.

I've also recently started helping NumFOCUS[4] as a tech flunky. NumFOCUS
runs events like PyData.

I'd like to hear what other groups do for their office hours/project night
types of events. How much structure do you provide, and do you recruit
instructor attendees?
