I attend NCSU and they have a very good linux network they call EOS. It was modeled after Georgia Tech's system I think. The coolest thing about it is that you can install their version of linux on your hard drive and, if you are connected, use all of the remote apps and services made available by the university just as if you were in a lab across campus.
Actually I'm on ethernet and when your entire hall is playing Counter Strike or Quake III, it is kind of hard to do anything other than that -- if you want to "hang out" with them. If you were to go to any connected dormitory you might experience quite a bit of culture shock.
