Table 1 below lists the number of WebVista Campus Edition (CE) sites associated with courses offered at the University of Minnesota campuses since fall 2003.
Beginning in fall 2003, three university units (The Academic Health Center, General College, and the College of Agriculture, Food, and Environmental Science) requested that WebVista Campus Edition (CE) sites be automatically created for each section of their courses.
For fall 2003 and spring 2004, there was no easy way to determine which of these auto-created sites were actually used by faculty members. Therefore, overall data on numbers of WebVista CE sites and users from these two semesters are not comparable to data from previous semesters. Beginning in fall 2004, we can now estimate use of auto-created sites.
All numbers refer to the ADCS/OIT installation of WebVista CE.

Notes to Table 1:
- Instructor-requested WebVista sites associated with a class taught during these semesters. Excludes developer and training, and HIPAA sites.
- Auto-created WebVista sites associated with a class taught during these semesters. Excludes developer and training, and HIPAA sites.
- Refers to student accounts within course sites, and not to unique, individual students. For example, a student enrolled in two courses with WebVista sites is counted as two student seats.
