Welcome
Connecting folks working with issues and challenges that are unique to Drupal in post-secondary academic environments.
History
This group has been founded as a result of DrupalCon San Francisco 2010, when it became obvious that there was a need for a place to extend the fruitful higher education-focused discussions that began there.

We are looking for a Drupal developer who can help us build a Drupal 8 platform, based on our current Drupal 7 platform. If you are knowledgeable about Drupal 8 modules and what we need to replicate the functionality and appearance of our Drupal 7 platform in Drupal 8, please contact me at christianburk@creighton.edu.
In addition, there may need to be some custom module development--porting over our custom Drupal 7 modules--or patching of Drupal 8 modules for our purposes.

Is anyone else from Nebraska going?

Wanted to reference this here in case people didn't see it. We've got https://drupal.org/project/webcomponents module able to go straight from polymer templates to display modes to field UI to rendered output. This completely by-passes the traditional tpl / template file workflow and allows front-end to dictate design to backend (instead of in Drupal where it's usually a mish-mash of both). It's also by-reference so updating your templates sees them updated in Drupal.
