Oracle is giving students free passes to get into JavaOne (and Oracle Develop). To qualify the student must be at least 18-years-old, enrolled in an accredited non-profit institution during the Fall semester of 2010 and studying at least six units.
The students gain admission to:
the Java Frontier track for students. Sessions include talks on 3-D animation programming and tools for learning Java. To find out more search the content catalog with 'JavaOne and Oracle Develop' as the event and 'Student Sessions' as the track.
the Oracle Develop and OpenWorld keynotes
the exhibition halls
the Mason street tent (an academic booth that showcases training and technologies available to students)
If they're lucky they can also gain entry into technical, Birds-of-a-feather and Hands-on-Lab sessions. This will depend on whether there is any space left.
