At the event, we likely did some version of the [[https://openhatch.org/wiki/Open_Source_Comes_to_Campus/Practicing_Git/Students | Practicing Git activity]]. That's difficult to reproduce online (though we can try if you ask us on IRC!) so you might try the [[https://openhatch.org/missions/git | Git training mission]] instead.

==Picking a Project==

We used [https://github.com/openhatch/open-source-comes-to-campus/releases/download/chicago/FindingProjects_Student_Handout.pdf this handout (warning: auto-downloaded PDF)] to work through the process of finding a project to contribute to. Although the handout is phrased for working in pairs, you can just apply the questions to yourself. (Or find a person to partner with! You can do this with a friend or classmate, or someone on the #openhatch IRC.)
