This group was formed out of a meeting of minds at DrupalCon San Francisco 2010. The idea is to promote Drupal adoption on public California University campuses. This group overlaps with the education groups available, but the mission is different. This group is specifically focused around evangelizing for Drupal adoption on California University campuses and sharing available resources among those campuses.
This is an especially important time for promoting Drupal as both the University of California (UC) and California State University (CSU) systems are looking towards moving IT Services into cloud services. These offices are not yet aware of the adoption rate and impact of Drupal on campuses state-wide and a group is needed to both evangelize/advertise that fact and also to promote further adoption on campuses.
When posting to this group, please also cross-post (just check another checkbox) anything that is not California specific to the Higher Education group as well.

The Stanford Drupal Camp is a two-day event to discuss and learn about Drupal, an open-source content management system that powers thousands of websites at Stanford, and millions of websites beyond.
This year, the Stanford Drupal Camp emphasizes introductory sessions focused on content strategy as well as thought-provoking sessions for researchers in academia. Those new to Drupal and Content Strategy will be particularly interested in the events on Friday, whereas experienced Drupallers (yes, we spell it with two "L"s at Stanford) may be more interested in Saturday's program.

Read moreField audit module: make data owners happy
I have just promoted the Field Audit module to a full project, and thought fellow Higher Ed folks would be interested. This module adds an additional administrative note to every field for things like recording approval for data use, or noting integration points. It also generates a field audit report that you can hand over to data owners on your campus which shows all fields for any entity or bundle along with the admin notes and any feeds importers that map to that field.

Dear Colleagues,
I am very pleased to announce that the 3rd Annual BADcamp (Bay Area Drupal Camp) Higher Ed Summit will be held on Friday Oct 25th at the beautiful UC Berkeley campus. We are very fortunate to have the support of the BADcamp organizers to get a full-day dedicated to Higher Ed Drupal topics.
We have listened to feedback from you from previous years, and we think we have a good balance of high-quality sessions, and unconference-style components like lightning talks and BoF tables.

Drupal vs. Hannon Hill Cascade???
CSU Bakersfield has retained a web design firm to redo our site. They are proposing that we use a customized Drupal implementation. Some on campus are not in favor of going with an open-source solution and are instead interested in exploring Hannon Hill's product - I believe it's because several other CSUs are using Hannon Hill, and they feel we will get better support, training, etc, etc. I'm wondering if anyone can chime in on either product and if anyone has used either for their entire university/college site. What are the pros and cons to each?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Read moreAnnouncing the Student CRM project
Retaining students in higher education is a big challenge as colleges and universities struggle to maintain a high level of customer service in the face of tightening budgets and larger student populations. We at Cal State Monterey Bay are no different, and have been working on a Drupal install profile to help make our faculty, advisors, and support staff more efficient when working with students.

Cal State Monterey Bay is looking for a great team to help with a CRM project for managing student relationships. Our team is committed to Drupal; however, we just have so many projects that we need your help to get this one out the door!
We are expecting to release this project as an open-source install profile after we've tested it on our campus, and we hope that interested firms are equally excited to do work that will benefit both our campus and other universities and colleges as well.
Read moreBenchmarking Higher Ed Sites ...
I recently revisited an old pet project of mine looking at benchmarking and comparing higher education sites. It is obviously a work in progress, but it is shaping up fairly well at this stage and I'm getting to a point where I'd like to secure some feedback. If 'ya get a chance, please take a look and let me know what you think. It's based on D7, represents around 3,200 US higher ed sites, and has a range of data to sift through.
