I will be speaking at University of Tennessee at Chattanooga this Friday
so am thrilled to be able to include information on GSOC. :)

 From Carol Smith <carols at google.com>
> We've announced that we're doing Google Summer of Code 2013 [1]. Yay!
>
> If you would like to help spread the word about GSoC, we have 
> presentations [2], logos [3], and flyers [4] for you to use. Please 
> host meetups, tell your friends and colleagues about the program, go 
> to conferences, talk to people about the program, and just generally 
> do all the awesome word-of-mouth stuff you do every year to promote 
> the program.
>
> The GSoC calendar, FAQ, and events timeline have all been updated with 
> this year's important dates, so please refer to those for the 
> milestones for this year's program. NB: the normal timeline for the 
> program has been modified for this year. You'll probably want to 
> examine the dates closely to make sure you know when important things 
> are happening.
>
> Please consider translating the presentations and/or flyers into your 
> native language and submitting them directly to me to post on the 
> wiki. Localization for our material is integral to reaching the widest 
> possible audience around the world. If you decide to translate a 
> flyer, please fill out our form to request a thank you gift for your 
> effort. [5]
>
> If you decide to host a meetup, please email me to let me know the 
> date, time, and location so I can put it on the GSoC calendar. Also, 
> remember to take pictures at your meetup and write up a blog post for 
> our blog using our provided template for formatting [6]. If you need 
> promotional items for your attendees, please fill out our form [7] to 
> request some; we're happy to send some along. We can provide up to 
> about 25 pens, notebooks, or stickers and/or a few t-shirts. Please 
> keep in mind, though, that shipping restrictions and timeline vary 
> country-to-country; request items early to make sure they get there on 
> time! If you have questions about hosting meetups, please see the 
> section in our FAQ [8].
>
> Please consider applying to participate as an organization again this 
> year or maybe joining as a mentor for your favorite organization if 
> they are selected this year.
>
> We rely on you for your help for the success of this program, so thank 
> you in advance for all the work you do!
