Fermilab is considering 8 GeV superconducting linac whose primary mission is to serve as an intense H- injector for the main injector. This accelerator is also planned to be used for accelerating various other species (e.g. electrons and muons). In the present paper we investigate the possibility of such a linac to accelerate a high brightness electron beam to ~7 GeV. We propose a design for the electron front end, based on a photoinjector, and consider the electron beam dynamics along the linac. Start-to-end simulations of the full accelerator for electrons are presented. Finally the potential applications of the such an electron beam are discussed.
