Greetings,
I am hoping you guys can suggest a good University sim that I can direct
someone to so they can see what other universities are doing in SL. As I
am in GMT+11 I am looking for a sim that has an activity that one can do
any time and that really shows off the educational potential of SL.

Thanks in advance.

Montclair State University has three islands, two are dedicated to course related activities, the third is an educational community.

Montclair State CHSS
Edgar Allan Poe House, Willow Springs Project, recreation of our actual world campus amphitheater, MSU SL Library, our working Quidditch pitch, Residence Halls, and Residence Life Education is working on something.  We also had a Student Center but due to a recent "accident"  :-)  it needs to be rebuilt.

Montclair State CEHSADP
Theorist Project, CEHS Welcome Center, NewLit Media Center (formally the Wilber Middle School Library).  The Theorist Project has garnered a great deal of attention and is well worth a visit.

Sorry I don't have the SLURLs handy - but if you use the SEARCH on the MAP and enter MONTCLAIR, our three islands will come up.  Once you get to one, you can fly around all three.

best,
aj
