The 60D will handle totality, + Diamond Rings, but you'll need a filter if you want to photograph the partial phases. In that case a bit of Baader AstroSolar Safety Film would be the go. I had a bit taped (securely) inside a spare lens cap that I'd cut a hole in.
Sounds like you'll have plenty of help on board, just don't get so caught up in the photography that you forget to look LOL!
