<div dir="ltr">Hi Suchith, all:
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Patrick Hogan made some helpful edits to the text I have on my lab's site (thanks Patrick!), and I then edited it a little more toward some possible useful language for the 'Why universities should join' text. I'm sure there are other points to be made,
but its a start. The text is attached.</div>

</div>
<div>Suchith, not sure who is leading the update to the GeoForAll page on this topic...</div>

<div>Cheers</div>

On twitter just now a community leader made a comment that our website (<a href="http://www.geoforall.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.geoforall.org</a>) doesn't clearly point out the benefits for a university. We outline "How to Join" (<a href="http://www.geoforall.org/how_to_join/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.geoforall.org/how_to_join/</a>),
but not really "Why to Join".<br>
<br>
I thought this was a good point, and now that we all understand it more, it might be good to highlight this on the site.<br>
