WUaS would like to design into our online open wiki schools and universities a kind of spirit of Cuttyhunk, from the CYC song, for example ...
"So give three cheers for Cuttyhunk,
Our spirits all are free ... '
(see: http://www.cuttyhunkyachtclub.org/)

As an example of how WUaS works, here's the beginning "Sailing" wiki subject/school with some MIT OpenCourseWare courses, and which is editable as a wiki - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Sailing - for all of us to teach to and learn from.
How to generate in the information technology design {building on online educational successes already} for a kind of WUaS freedom of spirit, and flourishing, that many kids have experienced learning to sail on Cuttyhunk over the decades, which this song is about?

The Cuttyhunk CYC song for me expresses a kind of liminality and communitas {and local community} in summer, involving play for learning how to sail, and vis-a-vis modernity ... especially for kids.

{Friends/Quaker school may be another good example of liminality - vis-a-vis learning - and very enjoyably so for the many kids who flourish or thrive in these milieus}.

Wikipedia and Google as examples of parallel-to-the-above information technologies that somehow "sail before the wind" ... ? (not necessarily socially yet ... )
