WordPress in Higher Education

Duration: 30:12

WPCampus is a community and conference for web professionals, educators and people dedicated to the confluence of WordPress in higher education. Today will be a very general overview of WPCampus and talking about the conference but we want this to be the beginning of a weekly show where we can discuss topics relevant to our community, share tutorials and walkthroughs, broadcast the types of sessions you might see at a conference, and more!

For this episode, we are joined by WPCampus members Rachel Cherry, Jonathan Perlman, Curtiss Grymala, Sara Clark, and Chris Flannagan.
