colleges

I've been talking to a few University / College types lately and been asking them one thing -- If a group existed that was dedicated towards Drupal for Universities, would you be interested? Thus far the few that we've pitched this idea to have been very receptive. I posted recently about this idea of a Drupal for Universities Consortium to try and get some feedback / discussion from the rest of the community.

Welcome to the group! I recently launched a new website for the Rice University Student Association (at 4 am this morning - fun) and I plan on launching a Drupal site to replace the aging website of my residential college, Jones College. The idea to create a place for Drupal campus web developers to exchange ideas popped into my head a few minutes ago - and here you are!

I'd love feedback on the SA website - especially criticisms!

I'm delighted to announce the release of phpEdu beta2.

You can now install the modules just like any other Drupal module. Please, this is for people who are interested in looking at ongoing work. Things are bound to change at anytime. Download if from: http://www.phpedu.org.uk/public/phpedu-beta2.tar.gz Install and try. Any feedback would be highly appreciated. You'll need to grab some contrib modules eg activeselect, user_readonly, og.

Hi All,

I've been working on phpEdu - a web-based educational management system for tertiary instituitions for years but early this year, started porting it to Drupal. Beta 1 is out and you may see it in action at http://www.phpedu.org.uk. Beta 2 is due for release very soon.

Modules written for phpEdu on the site include faculty, program, admission, courses (including course wishlist and registration), quiz( 3 question types) and assignment. Others planned include timetable(event), attendance, results etc
