In the various dorm networking sessions at EDUCOM it seemed that several
schools are including video in the package. People were talking about providing
local video service including a number of channels including both educational
and entertainment programming. With some folks, selling this service figured
into their funding model for data network services.
I am interested in finding out more about what people are doing with video.
Here at Williams we have a 75ohm coax TV network with four channels of foreign
language programming, but it's only available in the foreign language center
and a few other buildings on campus. I'm interested in putting this, and
potentially more, into the dormitories, but I need to work it in such a way
that entertainment TV is not lost. (and also so we can afford it).
If people who are providing video services would like to let me know what they
are doing, or point me to sources of information on how to do this, I would
much appreciate it.
Thanks,
- Mark
