When CampusPress<\/a>\u00a0first started hosting WordPress Multisite networks for schools and universities 5+ years ago, it was pretty much exclusively for blog networks.<\/p>\n

But not so today.<\/p>\n

With easy to customize themes and the user friendliness of the publishing process, we see WordPress being leveraged to meet dozens of web and technology needs.<\/p>\n

And now with improved integration with popular Learning Management Systems<\/a>, and the new data centers in Europe and Canada<\/a>, this trend is poised to grow even more.<\/p>\n
