The University of North Texas, in general, supports Linux. I worked in the university library's IT department, and also used Linux on my laptop. The University's Wi-Fi can be logged into using any modern web browser and OS with a dhcp client. The online class system needs java, and some of the online video support requires realplayer format playback. Rarely, quicktime support may be needed, but again, any sort of playback support will usually do (Mac uses like to integrate videos without knowing whether others can support them). Word documents are the standard text document format. Now, maybe some class requires a proprietary application, but I never encountered any. The university provides discounted software and free antivirus, but typically that's all for Windows/Mac. So, I would declare UNT a Linux-friendly campus (or at least OS-neutral).
The danger with this advertising is its extreme invasion of privacy, to the point that it subverts individual free will in how people have no choice but to hear it. In other advertising forms, people can ignore it or not look at it, largely because it's not so close or invasive to them as to be imposing. In the case of a person coming up to people and trying to market a product, they can always turn the person away. With holosonic advertising, there is no way to avoid it and no way for people to instate their choice of privacy against it.

Also, the VPN uses a cisco client that has a Linux version.
