Dear Universitians and friends,

Greetings!

NEWS about World University and School: 

1 World University and School is seeking an intern who knows SPARQL as well as natural language processing to help develop CC WUaS in CC Wikidata/Wikibase in all 300 languages, as well as an intern to help make the WUaS web site professional. This is an opportunity to create an accrediting best STEM CC OpenCourseWare online university. 

2 WUaS is in communication with the Italian Cultural Institute in San Francisco to explore whether the ICC could possibly please help to find and hire a part time Italian speaking director or head of WUaS Italian instruction to focus developments re starting World University in Italian. An Italian Harvard/MIT/Stanford of the Internet will help many people learn Italian. 

3 WUaS is seeking to develop our new "front end" now in two languages - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/WUaS_En_Wiki/ and http://worlduniversityandschool.org/WUaS_De_Wiki/ - in Wikidata/Wikibase beginning soon. All of this will be accessible from the WUaS "front page" - http://worlduniversityandschool.org/. WUaS seeks to have an online course catalogue as database available by late spring / summer so that prospective high school students (with their parents) can begin to decide this autumn whether to apply to accrediting WUaS, again for free best STEM CC OpenCourseWare WUaS degrees, first for overseas students in English. Students will be studying from their high school rooms.
