** World Cup 98 hits StudentZone !
-------------------------------
NISS's StudentZone Service at http://www.studentzone.org.uk/ aims to meet
the information needs of students on and off campus - and for the next few
weeks that will possibly mean on and off the football field too ! Our
StudentZone Editor needed little persuasion to pen the following trailer ...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
With the World Cup Finals on most people's minds, StudentZone will be
providing easy to use information about the matches and teams in Paris 1998.
At present you can find out when and where matches are to be played, and
once the competition starts, results and details of scorers will be reported
daily. There will be information on each team's games and on the 22 squad,
with news of their progress through the group and beyond. Other pages include
a guide with details about which channels are showing the matches on TV, as
well as kick-off times (standardised to British Summer Time).
The collection of pages about the World Cup will be easy to navigate via a
menu bar, and all the information will be at hand to keep you up to date with
your favourite team's progress, perhaps right through to the final itself.
You can find our World Cup 98 pages via a link on the StudentZone home page
or go direct to the URL http://www.studentzone.org.uk/world_cup/
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Leaving football aside for a moment (if that is a feasible option this
summer), please don't forget that a range of other subjects and topics are
covered on StudentZone - key areas include careers, travel, legal and
financial, health, as well as sports - and that the Editor (Email
[log in to unmask]) welcomes comments about the service and
suggestions for future developments.
