It's embarrassing to go to this school, it's pathetic at how little it cares about its PAYING students.

Guys stop blaming Mac. Do you know how many people connect per day and for how long ????

The numbers are big and we need a strong hardware for it.

You tuitions doesn't cover the cost of Internet, computer hardware, software and the cost for UTS services. So guys stop complaining.

We pay for adequate services. If they cannot provide, we will complain.

What in the world are you talking about? Stop dickriding Mac and admit it has way too many faults.

If ya ask me, Mac provides us with adequate internet services. What they dont provide us is with means on maintaining it and securing it.

Mac dosent have a means of controlling what students do on the internet, which they should. There are plenty of people massing their torrents.

Mcmaster gets the money from donations. That's how they bought the things.

Tuition actually pays for your courses. Only a small percentage is used by the University to make your life better and Internet is excluded from that.
