>Hey,

I can't make the meeting.  Do what radhika said about e-mailing 
undergrads at mit.  You should also e-mail living groups and other mailing 
lists that you belong to.  Of course, e-mail habitat.  You should ask them 
to put their top three preferences for shifts and then send them their 
final shift assignment, so we can better spread out the volunteers.  There 
are certain times of day that are definitely more popular than 
others.  Also, tell them to bring any tools that they think would be 
helpful and suggested clothing etc.
