college

I promised a few people at DrupalConSF I would post this example of a multi-campus, searchable campus map. It works great with events or a "Places" Search.

I'm currently a member of the Ubuntu California and a junior at Chapman University in Orange, California. I'm currently helping to bring back my school's ACM chapter, and have begun setting up this year's schedule. I'm trying to have a few nights per month dedicated to different events, such as contributing to Mozilla and Ubuntu, movie nights, and presentations. I'd like to have one speaker per month arrive from different aspects of the community to present about topics they love.

This thread is for colleges/universities who currently use or are planning to use Drupal.

My name is Greg Linch and I'm the editor of The Miami Hurricane at the University of Miami (Florida, USA).We're in the early stages of building our site.

To kick off the conversation, here are some blogs and posts discussing our redesign:

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!
