Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

HackIllinois is running an Open Source Fellowship where we aim to bring in mentors from cool OS projects of different focus areas so that students who are experienced coders can learn about the OS community + make impactful contributions. Mentors will meet with their students at least once a week (virtually) from Sept 30 - Oct 21 to guide them on making PRs, finding issues, and debug their code. The goal is for the students to familiarize themselves with OS and possibly become long-term contributors.

Describe the solution you'd like

We are looking for mentors who are interested in this. It's a great way to give back to the OS community. Please comment on this issue if you'd like to learn more/participate. Note: mentor time committment is very flexible and we leave it largely up to the mentor.
