A new email letter from Lost University came out today. With the release of Season 6 on DVD, a Lost University Masters Program has been announced. Here is the letter:

Dear LOST University Students and Alumni,

With the series finale several months ago, we know you are sitting at home saying, “We have to go back!” Not only to the island, but back to the campus of LOST University.  For those of you who are new to our program or have not yet experienced campus life at LOST University, welcome.  For our continuing students and alumni we have many new opportunities waiting for you within the LOST University: Master’s Program.

Alumni and new masters students are needed to act as teacher assistants for new classes including Theology, Spanish with Professor Nestor Carbonell, Literature and Acting with the cast of LOST (exclusive to graduates from the LOST University Undergraduate Program). Each of these classes, led by top university professors, delve deeper into the mythology, stories and characters of LOST, providing a greater understanding as to what it all means and look at the show again with a more enlightened and educated point of view.

Enrollment in the LOST University: Master’s Program is the perfect way to move on and extend your LOST experience.  Classes begin exclusively with the release of LOST: The Complete Sixth and Final Season on Blu-ray™ and LOST: The Complete Collection Blu-ray™.  We look forward to seeing you as a candidate for graduation.

When you arrive on campus, please stop by the Advisor’s Office where I will help you set your schedule and choose a thesis topic.  Until then, please visit our online campus at www.lostuniversity.org, where you can experience an array of campus life from the course catalogue, campus news from The Lamp Post, network with other students in the forums or shop for LOST U merchandise at the campus bookstore.

We know you have what it takes, enroll today in the LOST University: Master’s Program.

Namaste.

Dr. David Daniels
Graduate Advisor

Lost University Endlessly Loading?

Help! I’m having flashbacks of Dharma Wants You! So, I signed up for Lost University, rather I enrolled… of course that was a challenge in itself. Then I took the “placement test” and submitted my answers. I never saw my results and every time I log back in to the site, it just endlessly loads with the Lost University fake Dharma logo loading animation. Is anyone else having this problem? If so, what’s with Lost hiring these horrible web designers making flash websites that can’t handle any amount of traffic? I’m about to give up on these Lost ARGs. Remember when they used to be good? And doesn’t this whole Lost University thing just seem like a GIANT ad for the BluRay DVDs??

Lost University: Enrollment Begins Soon!

From the Lost University website:

A world of knowledge awaits you here at LOST University! As a student at LOST University, you will have the opportunity to dig deeper into the themes and mysteries of LOST, while at the same time exploring fascinating topics and subjects that relate to the world you live in.

Enrollment for the first semester of LOST University will be open to all students beginning September 22nd, 2009. At that time, you will take a placement exam and be given a Student ID, as well as be able to watch your LOST University introductory class, LOST 101. Semester 1 begins on December 8, 2009, at which point you will be able to choose and enroll in all of your classes, as you build credits toward Semester 2 and graduation. Pick up LOST: THE COMPLETE FIFTH SEASON on Blu-rayTM Hi-Def, complete enrollment, and personalize your course schedule as you build credits toward Semester 2… and ultimately, graduation. In the meantime, feel free to browse the online course catalog and get a head start with some of your recommended reading. And keep a lookout for new LOST University features in the near future, from more online classes, to exclusive iPhone applications, and more.

By the way, you can get Lost University gear at the LU Bookstore!
