"Oracle is hoping to entice a younger generation of Java
programmers into its fold by offering students complimentary
admission to the upcoming JavaOne and Oracle Develop
conferences.
"To qualify for a Discover Pass to the conferences, qualifying
students must be 18 years old, enrolled in a nonprofit, accredited
institution, and taking at least six course units, according to an
official blog post Wednesday.
"The passes provide access to keynote speeches and a number of
exhibition halls, as well as a special Java Frontier sessions track
aimed at students. They can also enjoy technical sessions, hands-on
lab events and "Birds-of-a-Feather" networking sessions -- space
permitting."
