One more message before I stop bombarding the list... :-)

I'm curious if there are other schools which have very high percentages of
on-campus students and have networked their residence halls.  Notre Dame
has about 85% of it's undergrad students living on-campus in a situation
where -- particularly in the absense of fraternities and sororities -- the
residence halls form the core of the student experience and existence.  

I'd like to know if any other schools have similarly high on-campus
residence rates, and if so, has any thought been given to how adding
computing-on-demand to the mix could fundamentally change the student
experience.

Thanks,
Mike!
