SUNY Morrisville actually has 8 to 10 T-1 lines.  There is at least one
deidcated to the dorms. Two (or more) are dedicated to academic traffic
(labs, calssrooms, library public computers), several for our laptop
wireless users when in the dorms, one or two for faculty offices, one for
administrative offices, and such.  It seems to be working very well comapred
to six months ago when we had two for the whole campus.  Our president's
philososphy is not to limit use but to buy more bandwidth.  Evidently we are
getting very good deals because of new state ocntracts with our provider. I
think its AT&T but am not 100% sure.
