University of Pseudoscience

University of Pseudoscience 12/30/2004 11:08 AM
David Pescovitz: One of the Florida State University professors protesting against a proposed chiropractic school at the college created this spoof campus map. Apparently, seven professors have threatened to quit if the chiropractic school happens.
From the St. Petersburg Times:

The threatened resignations...reflect a belief among many in the medical establishment that chiropractic is a "pseudo-science " that leads to unnecessary and sometimes harmful treatments...

The list of critics include FSU's two Nobel laureates - Robert Schreiffer, a physicist, and Harold Walter Kroto, a chemist - and Robert Holton, the chemistry professor who developed the cancer-fighting drug Taxol, which has brought FSU tens of millions of dollars in royalties. In recent weeks, more than 500 faculty members have signed petitions against the chiropractic school, including about 70 in the medical college, said Dr. Raymond Bellamy, an assistant professor who is leading the charge against the proposal.

University Switches to 802.1X

University Switches to 802.1X 04/09/2004 03:57 PM
University of Tennessee switches to 802.1X, but leaves gateway-controlled segment for older systems: The university first tried a proprietary method of authentication in 2002 that left behind users of the latest operating systems (XP and OS X). The latest incarnation uses 802.1X, which is well supported in Windows XP (Service Pack 1 with wireless rollout for best results) and Mac OS X 10.3 (PEAP, EAP-TTLS, EAP-TLS, and other flavors). Because the university opted for TTLS (the reasoning isn't explained), it's not noted but they would have had to install a third-party client on Windows systems. However, TTLS is supported by Funk and Meetinghouse for a wide variety of Windows platforms as well as Solaris and certain Linux flavors. The non-802.1X segment requires a gateway login and is locked by MAC. The staff use tools to monitor MAC addresses to ensure that legitimate authenticated sessions aren't being hijacked. It's clearly a transition stage for them, too, as they can't have a complete .1X switchover, but they'll gradually have less reason to run a gatewayed system. Their current system doesn't offer session-to-session authentication, but requires re-entering credentials each time a laptop is awoken from sleep. But given the state of .1X clients, this should still be simpler (clicking a button in most cases) than a repeated gateway login....

To tackle poor Wi-Fi certification first-pass rate, University of New Hampshire's InterOperability Lab (UNH-IOL) offers approved pre-certification: This might sound obscure, but it's a way for companies to save potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars and weeks of work off the budget for developing Wi-Fi products. The Wi-Fi Alliance has said that 25 percent of the products reaching their labs don't pass Wi-Fi certification tests the first go-round. The UNH-IOL will provide an intermediate testing program that will allow mid-stream course correction with ostensibly less cost. Lab users must pay fees unless they support the lab directly, and must be Wi-Fi Alliance members....

Can A University Ban WiFi Networks?

Can A University Ban WiFi Networks? 09/09/2004 11:16 AM
Slashdot is running a story about The University of Texas at Dallas banning independent WiFi networks to avoid interference with the university-run WiFi network. There's just one (big) problem. The FCC has made it clear that only they have the right to regulate unlicensed spectrum. That was the point of the ruling they made just a few months ago telling airports they can't stop anyone from setting up WiFi networks within the airport. At the same time, though, this does demonstrate some of the issues with unlicensed spectrum. As great as it's been for generating massive growth for things like WiFi, interference is still a problem -- and one that not enough people have paid attention to.

More on University of Texas Wi-Fi Policy 09/10/2004 01:01 PM
An association of university telecom administrators has already asked the FCC to clarify whether universities can ban Wi-Fi networks: The University of Texas recently banned students from setting up their own Wi-Fi networks, stating that the independent networks were interfering with a free university-maintained network. The FCC told the Association of College and University Telecommunications Administrators that schools can prohibit students living in campus housing from building wireless networks. But, if the school leases residential property where students live, they can't restrict the use of wireless networks. The right of the University of Texas to forbid students from using their own wireless networks will depend on who owns the building the students live in....

University of Texas Removes Wi-Fi Ban 09/16/2004 11:29 AM
The University of Texas at Dallas, which recently set a rule forbidding students from building their own Wi-Fi networks, rescinded the policy: The action of forbidding the networks created quite a buzz online. University officials referred to an FCC notice posted in June that makes it clear that the FCC is the only body that has jurisdiction over the airwaves. While universities have some control over what students do in student housing, in this case, the student building is not owned by the university. That means the university has less rights to control what students do there. [link via Frank]...

University Budget Crunch May Curtail
Wi-Fi 03/06/2004 01:49 AM
The University of Michigan is facing a budget crunch which may limit the growth of Wi-Fi on campus: While parts of campus are already covered, many departments have included new Wi-Fi networks in their budgets. But because of the university's tight budget those items may not get approved. It seems like many universities are facing budget shortfalls and it would be unfortunate if that slowed down the growth of Wi-Fi on campuses. However, I continue to see news about universities that are building out their Wi-Fi networks so perhaps the University of Michigan's experience doesn't point to a trend....

University Policy Handbook Index

University Policy Handbook Index
http://www.campus-adr.org/Staff_Admin_Building/searchpolicies.html

The primary purpose of the University Policy Handbook Index is to assist users who are exploring the creation / revision of Conflict Resolution policies at their institution. The index does this by providing access to examples from other institutions. You can search all of the Policy handbooks in the index or narrow your search to a category that matches the audience you are creating / revising a policy for. The index is not limited in any way to Conflict Resolution related policies, but rather attempts to index all the web-accessible handbooks at major institutions in the United States. Thus it should prove useful in a broad range of circumstances. As of October 1, 2003 there are 975 records in the Policy Handbook database from 691 universities / colleges in the United States.
