This slide, primarily focuses on open source's student-friendly perks. Drawing from my OSAC coordination experience from 2018 to 2020 and organizing Software Freedom Day physically in 2018 and virtually in 2020, it also reveals the student-specific gains in open source. From skill-building to networking, I'll explore how students can unlock their potential with open source.
