Drupalcamp at CALIcon

If you're headed to the CALI conference on law school computing this summer be sure to check out Drupalfest. At Drupalfest a group of law school Drupalers will be taking the group through a one-day intensive Drupal setup and configuration. We'll start with a thumb-drive with the necessary applications pre-installed and leave with each person having a functioning student-organizations website.

So if you're headed to Baltimore and have always wanted to know more about this whole Drupal thing be sure to sign up and join us.

Finally

Hard to believe but finals are here once more. As so often is the case the fall finals there are many students who haven't quite prepared properly. Somewhere along the line the message that certain preparation must be done 48-hours in advance means it will turn into IT's crisis 30-minutes before the exam starts. Hopefully these same folk will determine to start preparing for the bar exam a little further in advance.
