MSDN - The Microsoft Developer Network - Free Events

If you have developers within your college, busily coding applications and systems for your intranet, then you may want to let them know about the free MSDN events coming up over the next few months. They're aimed at mainstream development engineers, and given that some colleges have people developing internal applications, with a big emphasis on web applications, it looked like many of the following events might be of interest.

The links contain all the information on the agenda, and presenters. The "SharePoint for Developers" event will probably be of most interest, as there are a number of colleges using SharePoint to support collaboration and workflow around the campus. I'm tempted to go to the Silverlight one, as I've seen so many wow applications built in it, but I rather suspect it would go whoosh over my head!
