[wp-edu] Pimp your sites

[Casey Bisson]

Mark, those are some nice looking sites.

At Plymouth State University we're using WordPress to drive our  
library website and catalog, as well as a digital photo archive.

http://library.plymouth.edu/browse/
http://beyondbrownpaper.plymouth.edu/browse/

More information about the Scriblio plugins that power those sites here:

We also have a WPMU pilot project going with a few hundred blogs. Our  
CIO blogs there, and our former MIS director continues to use the blog  
he started while at Plymouth State:

http://dcfischer.blogs.plymouth.edu/
http://ken.blogs.plymouth.edu/

The WPMU pilot is basically complete and we're planning to  
dramatically expand the role of blogs. We're planning to implement  
BuddyPress as it stabilizes and then beginning a program to have every  
student, faculty, and staff member create and maintain their profile.
