SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 14, 2000

Campus Pipeline, Inc. announced today that the Campus Pipeline(TM) Web platform is now running the official campus intranets at 14 schools including two private universities, four four-year public schools, seven community colleges and one Canadian university.

The Campus Pipeline(TM) Web platform powers official campus intranets that support the learning environment and connect all members of the campus community to the school and to one another. Customized for each institution and personalized for each individual, the Campus Pipeline Web platform provides secure online access to the campus community, online learning resources, and back office systems that run a school's administrative services. Because the platform integrates with a school's databases, activities such as registering for classes, accessing Web-based email, viewing grades, using chat for course support, and staying current on community and campus events become easier, allowing students, faculty and staff to save time and manage their busy lives more effectively.

The Campus Pipeline Web platform is licensed to more than 500 campuses and installed at more than 50. The following schools are the first to go live with the Campus Pipeline platform:

-- Appalachian State University, NC

"These campus intranets cultivate a feeling of immediacy and relevance that extends well beyond that of mere Web sites or portals. Already we're seeing schools demonstrate creative ways of expanding the platform to all areas of the campus community. This is an important milestone for us and we are pleased that each of these schools is making Campus Pipeline an integral part of campus life."
