(Nasdaq: NTPL) today announced that it has signed a letter of intent to form a strategic partnership with Oklahoma Christian University (OC) under which Netplex will design and develop a model online "e-Campus." The first-of-its-kind e-Campus will be a secure, Web-based environment where each university constituent--including students, recruits, alumni, parents, faculty, donors, and staff--will receive a free personalized Web site featuring customizable content and various online transaction services. The two-year e-business services contract is valued at $1.5 million; additional provisions of the strategic relationship are outlined below. "We expect the OC e-Campus system to serve as the model for similar facilities that Netplex can brand and sell to other universities," said Netplex President Pamela Fredette. "This initiative represents Netplex's entry into the immense Education vertical market, which supports our business strategy of developing industry-focused e-solutions." In addition to the initial $1.5 million value of the services contract, the partnership assures mutual participation and benefit from the OC e-Campus initiative. This includes an option for Netplex to invest in the ownership and branding of the e-Campus with a revenue-share provision that provides OC with a percentage of future sales of the system. In addition, OC agrees to help promote the e-Campus solution to all universities and colleges using OC as the showcase. "The Oklahoma Christian University has demonstrated a long-standing commitment to the innovative use of educational technology and is dedicated to providing its students innovative and highest-quality services, facilities, and academic programs," said OC President Kevin Jacobs. "Our goal for the e-Campus is not to replace the residential campus life but to enhance and extend it. The Netplex e-solutions team has played a creative role in the development of an e-business strategy that will revolutionize the campus experience everywhere while greatly improving the university's personal contact and service to its constituency."

Well, Joe, I'm ashamed to say that I got shaken out of all my shares of NTPL in the single digits today. I'm guessing I held on longer than many did. Got shaken out of a lot of stocks this week. Good luck to any who may remain. Based on the stock price action (selling), I'm guessing not too many do remain. Mike

Services offered through this convenient, web-based "e-office" include: W-2 status, time sheet collection and billing, liability insurance, online account management, expense reimbursement, 401(K) and benefits administration, accounts receivable management and customer collections, contract review and billing rate advice, tax filings, profit sharing administration and credit union membership. "Monster's relationship with MyBizOffice builds on our leadership and innovation in this rapidly evolving free agent space that began with the launch of Monster Talent Market last July," said Jeff Taylor, CEO of Monster.com. "By providing free agents with additional choices, including MyBizOffice's online business services and features, we are further strengthening our position as the career operating system of choice."
