Author(s):Stephen McDowell (Florida State University)

Type:Presentations/Speeches
Abstract:During 2004-2005, several states passed legislation to restrict municipalities from offering retail broadband data networks to the public.

This presentation reviews the implications for colleges and universities of recent legislative and regulatory developments shaping broadband services and explores strategies for institutions of higher education.
