The domain has been changed to wphighered.org.

Loved the witty name, though. ☺

Resending because I think I sent earlier reply from the wrong address.

We have had a handful of official WordCamp Eds specifically for academic areas (including the CUNY one Joe references. We would happily support more niche WordCamps. The WordCampus site is currently violating trademark with the name/domain, and I believe Andrea Middleton has reached out (or is in the process of reaching out) to discuss either amending the name to respect trademark rules and/or to just go ahead and talk about doing it as an academic WordCamp through the usual process. We've also been discussing academic WordCamps recently with Anne McCarthy, so there's definitely a resurgence of interest. It would be ideal to get people working together if possible.

It’s been a long time, but we did have one of these back in 2009 here in NYC!

It was great and would be great to have another bigger one.
