The Husker Linux Users Group is a student group at the University of Nebraska—Lincoln. The members I met are involved with some fun stuff, such as building Linux clusters and doing gene sequencing for biological research. March's meeting included a talk by an IBM rep on mainframe Linux. Good stuff.
An added bonus: because of their UNL affiliation, HLUG can qualify for free Pepsi products at its meetings. Good to know should you be jonesing for a Dew and some stimulating Linux talk.
See the HLUG Web site for more information.
