obtain permission for tracking and studying participants

[lsetiawan]

A goal of our previous events was to study the development of a hack week, to observe participant behavior, and quantify the achievement of learning outcomes.

• invite social scientists to observe hackweek activities
• apply for approval from Internal Review Board
• ideally, participants should consent to be contacted at the application stage, which opens up the potential of tracking both participants and non-participants and allows for evaluation of the hack week.
