World CommunicationIn a refreshingly innovative use of virtual reality by a law school, Seton Hall School of Law is hosting a Constitution Day Program on Sept. 17 on Second Life. The program, entitled "Interrogation and Intelligence Gathering," will be webcast in a virtual Guantanamo Bay detention center on Second Life. For more details, including how to find the locale "Gone Gitmo" on Second Life, read the press release.

Seton Hall Law plans to offer monthly programming on Second Life - this Constitution Day event is their first venture into virtual reality.
