As resident forum curmudgeon, I just wanted to note how impressed I've been with the slate of classes that TeaZers U has been holding and the high quality of the instruction; I feel like I'm back in 2003 when I've sat in on them.
Kudos to Seleras for doing a whiz-bang job of arranging these classes and, from what I hear, to the magnanimity of First Page for underwriting much of the cost of instructors.

Classes and school and learning, oh my!

Wow, thanks for all the input and encouragement, everyone!
*Scripting - we have a 4 part scripting class started up by Denise Collingwood. Part 1 for beginners happened tonight (sorry for the no notice!) and Parts 2-4 have been scheduled for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday at 6:30 PM SLT.
Tsuno & Stephane, I will try to IM you in-world to talk some more -- and I would love to see a class where we learn to build a tic-tac-toe board! That sounds great!
*HUD - I know of one class taught by Alisa Honey which will cover HUD-based AOs. This is next scheduled for Monday Jan 16 12 PM SLT, but I'm not sure on general HUD stuff. Anyone have any leads on HUD teachers?
*Advanced Building - I've been waiting for prim torture classes too! We will have some of these set up soon, and I'll try to post as soon as I know when. Believe me, they're in the works!
While we don't have training for mentors/greeters at Teazers University, we do do training for instructors. I imagine there's a bit of crossover in the stuff that'd need to be covered, and mentors/greeters are welcome at our training sessions. But I definitely see a hole there... so many volunteers, and no one to help them help others?
Frans mentioned tours, so I thought I'd plug the tours I've seen and heard of -- I know John Rollins was doing some self-guided tours. You could pick up a notecard and follow it at your leisure. I've also seen Horus Baker's Gallery Walks in the events though sadly I haven't been able to make it to one yet. But there are some GREAT galleries in SL so I'm sure the walks are great!
Audio, lighting, design, clothing/templates, poses/animations... we could use some willing and able teachers for some of these. Please post here or IM me in-world if you'd like to get together and set up some classes. I've got lots of ideas to work on now... but please keep posting!

From: Pain Pirandello I will second that, covering tools for putting them in the proper format. Learning to use a script to link together sound files would be Awesome! I have heard of this being done, but would really like to know how.

Setting up a business. It probably already exists but I'd love to see a class on setting up an actual business in SL - the nuts and bolts. How to create displays, how to select the best location, etc. This is touched on in a lot of "making money in SL" type courses but I would love to see in depth things on all aspects of running a business.

I've been trying to catch Alisa's HUD-AO class for a couple of weeks now, but I think she's in a different time zone from me.  I'd love to see it offered at different times, or on a weekend.
