SL University
I found that UTSA（University of Texas at San Antonio）has been still there, so I searched SL university again. In earlier times, there were many universities in SL including Japanese ones. There were for not only presentations and exhibitions, but also real studies and lectures in classrooms. Still there are some of them. The below is the Red Wood Pavilion at Stanford University Libraries in Second Life, established in 2009.

Let me introduce some from the explanation. “Stanford University Libraries was created in October of 2007. The goal is to explore the potential of virtual worlds in the discovery and presentation of information. It also offers support for education and research in the Stanford community, such as hosting or streaming classes into Second Life.”
An autumn-like corner in the above pavilion. There have been many kinds of types in SL universities. Some of them are simulating the real campus and activities for introduction and promotion, but the basic policy might be the same as that of Stanford shown above.
Among the archives, I found pictures of Japanese associates. The middle is the dorm, and the left is the tennis team. Since they have a cup, they could have won some event. It says 1925~26, so they should be the great Senpai of the foreign students from Japan.
Even with the name of “university”, some of them look like a social place, club or bar. This is “Dream River” where I took some pictures.
In the same SIM above. My old gallery had a glass piano that had more than 90 prims. My former boyfriend played it for me. He has not been IN for a long time, I hope he is doing well in RL…
In front of my gallery with glow of the sunset, there were my private beach and pear with yachts at anchor, a simple building made of cubes only but made myself at the least, a cool boyfriend took me along many places… That might be the happiest period in my SL life.
Even now, there are more than 100 landmarks hit under search with the word university. I checked all of them but most of them are not available. Only 10 of them had emblems of university. I miss the age when there are a large number of campuses in SL. I had meant to keep getting materials for my blog by visiting various universities as I had done before…
