Yes, it can be a nag to do the paperwork but each year I turn in my
application so that I can offer GE Pro access at a couple of my GIS
workstations in the library. Sure a response for my application can take
a few weeks but it has been worth it. If I had to pay $400 a year for
the GE Pro version then I probably would not offer this access or would
only make it available at one workstation. At my institution GE has been
valuable to expose students to both geography and technology as well as
a teaser towards learning GIS.

Best regards,

    I remember a couple years ago Google was offering a free GE-Pro
    license to
    educational users, but there were rumblings that the company never
    actually responded to the requests.  I don't see anything to this effect
    in the archives.

    Can anyone confirm or deny?
