Ever use Google Earth? You can fly all around the globe and view different landmarks. You can see local interests and get directions. You can get local search results on a 3D map. Now Google has started a contest for college students to submit a 3D model of their campus.

Using Google's free 3D modeling software, Sketchup, you can re-create all of the landmarks of the IC campus. And the winning team gets a trip to Google's headquarters in Mountain View, CA, for workshops on 3D modeling with Google experts and a tour of their campus.

The contest is open to college students only. If you're interested in being on a team, add a comment to this story. For more information on the contest, read about it on Google’s Blog or visit http://contest.sketchup.com/entry.php
