October 10, 6-7 pm SLT (pacific) is the first event planned this school year by VCARA. We are going on a tour of our neighbor in Second Life, Stanford University Island. We will first take a train ride around Stanford Island and take a look at the various exhibits that they have on their Island. Our tour guide will talk about the different exhibits that they have re-created in Second Life. After the train ride, we will walk to a couple of the exhibits and our tour guide will talk in depth about a couple of them. Right after the train tour, we will have a guided tour of the Virtual Archives that are kept by Stanford University Special Collections.

Join us on October 10^th for this enjoyable and rewarding experience. Meet us in VCARA at 5:45 pm SLT (pacific) using this SURL:http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/SJSU%20SLIS/39/74/33

Even though space on this tour is virtually unlimited, we ask that you RSVP to Kevin Dompier atkevin.dompier@gmail.com. You may also contact Kevin if you have any questions about this event.

If you are new to Second Life, or if you need a refresher in the basics of Second Life, help is here. Set up an orientation session by contacting Kevin Dompier, VCARA Student Assistant, to discuss a date and time.
