[Educational] Plone is a popular CMS choice for US universities

I just read this blog post by Carlos de la Guadia (thanks Carlos!)
entitled "Plone is a popular CMS choice for US Universities"
http://blog.delaguardia.com.mx/index.php?op=ViewArticle&articleId=87&blogId=1

Carlos talks about how the University of Leichester chose Plone over
Microsoft Sharepoint and published a report about it.

CMSWire has a summary of the results of a survey made by UC Davis, in
California, about CMS use at 129 american universities. Plone is the
top choice, with 13 implementations. Drupal is close as always, with
10, and Joomla has 8.

A nice list of universities using Plone.

I can see this list has already been added to
http://www.plone4universities.org/universities-using-plone

We should try to get these sites added to http://plone.net/sites and
tagged as "Education". Currently, there are only 134 "education" sites
listed:
