As announced on the Google Lat Long blog, today Google revealed the winners of their "Build Your Campus in 3D Competition". They are:

The winners get to fly out to Mountain View in August for a 3-day visit and workshop. Fun prize!
Even better, Google says that nearly 4,000 buildings were modeled and submitted for this contest. That will certainly give their 3D content a boost when all of that is pushed into Google Earth.
