JavaOne 2009, the best developer event in the world, is taking place in San Francisco, June 2-5.  Students who can make the trek to San Francisco will learn what’s new and different inside and around Java™ technology.

This free pass also gets you admission to the first day of CommunityOne (our open source conference) and Community One Deep Dives (half- and full-day technology tutorials).

Faculty can also take advantage of a special conference rate for $895! But it just gets better. Professors who bring 10 students will get a conference pass for free. Check out the Student and Educator Program for all the details, then register for JavaOne 2009. It will be the experience of a lifetime.
