Over on elljay (in the umstudents community), college students try to diagnose a medical condition.  When will people realize, personal experiences + google != medical degree?  Actually, google != any degree.

So after bitching to Google about the "Build Your Campus" contest a month ago, they want my help.  I complained that the 10-person limit on teams was unfair to schools with over 300 buildings, since the contest required that all campus buildings be modeled for a valid entry.  Apparently, the U of M Law Quad has been identified by the SketchUp team as a "signature structure" of the U.S., and so will be modeled in high detail and included in Google Earth.  They need high-res photos of the building but don't want to fly up here, so they dug up my email and asked me to photograph and model it.  I'm not being paid, but I miss this doing this stuff so much and hey, it's with Google.  We all like Google.
