Dave Lester, organizer of the first official WordCamp ED event (FYI I am organizing the second ) has a listing on his blog of schools using WordPress MU. He missed Yale, where our Instructional Technology group has an installation they are using to support classroom blogs. (Ken and Yianni are speaking at the NorthEast WordCamp event! ) But it is not yet an officially public use, so the omission is understandable.
The really impressive part of the list is how many schools are represented. I was recently at a meeting of web developers from around our university, and when a question on PHP apps came up WordPress was characterized in a negative light. I spoke up and defended the space — after all Windows is an even bigger security risk without its software patches! I didn’t count Dave’s list but it must be around 100 — they can’t all be wrong!
