Through NYSERNet's K-12 program about one dozen highschools have
either UUCP or SLIP connections to PSINet. Another 3 have leased
line router installations.
Jim Luckett knows exact numbers and schools.

What is the typical architecture for K-12 schools connecting to the Internet?
Do they:
#1 Have a modem connection to a computer at a local university;
#2 SLIP connection to a regional;
#3 UUCP connection to somewhere;
#4 Access a school district network that connects to regional?
The question essentially boils down to what level of customer is K-12
right now?
