[Marketing] FW: MIT Sloan Marketlab

[Caroline Meeks]

I think we definitely want to try to get as much marketing help as we can!
I think we need to find out if we get into the Ed TechBusiness forum first.
 At this point all we need is a 500 word blub.

I'm sure we can think of a marketing project, ideally we would talk to the
students and find something that matches their experience and passions.

Thanks!
Caroline
