Experiment ... go to a college dorm that's wired, plug your laptop or PC
in, start using the net. Assumption here of course is you're not a student
there. Nine times out of ten you wont' be challenged and you'll be allowed
to use the network. Students also often have friends over that use their
systems.
Thus you can't assume that every user is a student or faculty.
