In May 2011 EVE University established the first iteration of the [[Null-Sec Campus]] in the Fountain region. Unfortunately, the first iteration was not entirely successful, and the Null Sec Campus was forced to leave camp prematurely, and once again return to Empire space. Then one day, in September 2011, a handful of brave, perhaps foolhardy Unistas followed a gibbering madman named Tinman Spectacular into [[Syndicate]], pitched their tents, and settled in for the long haul. So Null Sec Campus 2.0 was born out of the initiative of EVE University students.

They were trying to foster what it was like to live out in NPC Nullsec in the NPC (Serpentis) pocket in Fountain, the Phoenix Constellation. At this time EVE University had strict rules about not entering Sov Null. Part of its concept was based on the largely successful Student-led ongoing event known as the Low-Sec Camp (which later became the [[Low-Sec Campus]]). The Syndicate-based NSC occurred later in 2012.}}

As a result of a lack of PvP opportunities from the Dec Shield, and a desire to help Unistas so inclined, a persistent student-run event called The Low-Sec Camp was established, for those to come and go, and learn to live in low-sec, and get some PvP action. There were ILN pilots and non-ILN pilots, and "carebears" of all stripes. They were quite successful and tried to operate outside of the administrative structure of EVE University, but sticking to the rules. The only support they depended on, due to corp mechanics, was for corp hangars. As with anything new or different, several culture clashes occurred, and many originators lost their enthusiasm to running this ongoing event. EVE University management became involved in the running of the campus, and it was relocated. Eventually, this student-led persistent event became the first official management endorsed and run Campus, ~~now~~ called the [[Low-Sec Campus]].
