 * Campus de Excelencia: In the summer 2016, Ute Lisenfeld (UGR) will be again organizing the Campus de Excelencia via the Universidad de Granada (see links below). These are school kids of age 15-17 who work for a week at the university. They will mostly have only very limited background in astronomy and physics. Ute plans to visit the OSN and 30m on four Wednesdays. These will be groups of 32 students, and we discussed to split them up into two.
   * Dates and 30m-guide:
     * 6-July: Pablo (AoD)
     * 13-July: Gabriel (AoD)
     * 20-July: Ute
     * 27-July: Claudia (AoD)
