In the session today we will present the CampusDrop project, its roadmap and features that are common across all higher ed organizations (profiles, departments, courses, events, news, etc.). We will also provide a brief comparison of Backdrop CMS's performance and dependencies relative to other major platforms like WordPress and Drupal.
Last year when the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at the University of Colorado Denver began moving the WebExpress installation profile off Drupal7, they were inspired by the success that BackdropCMS had with many universities. Penn State, Stanford, UCSF and many others are using BackdropCMS. The Backdrop community has extensive experience building sites for Higher Ed, and is now introducing a project conceivably called CampusDrop, a specialized BackdropCMS-based platform designed specifically for educational institutions.
