By our estimates there will be 225 active finance labs in the US and Canada by Sept 1, 2011.  A few weeks ago we started reaching out to labs and requesting they fill out our questionaire to help us identify the size in terms of sq footage, # of positions, tools used etc.

I am happy to say we have received feedback from our first 10 universities (links below) and we will start to provide weekly updates as to new additions to the map if you are interested and want to check back from time to time.

• Rotman School of Business
• Houghton College
• Baruch College
• Northern Virginia Community College
• College of William and Mary
• The Citadel
• Florida International University
• Southern University
• Indiana State University
• Nevada State College

Our appreciation to these schools for contributing their insights and we encourage any other visitors to please spend 2 to 3 minutes and share information about the trading room at your college of business.

If you have a lab and are looking for ideas on better ways to utilize it please check out the Summer Webinar Series at the footer of this page where you can see the different webinars happening on July 5, 6, and 7th.
