...these universities have every right in the world to install whatever filter they want. If these students want uncensored internet access the answer is simple, get your OWN computer and ISP!!!

I'll wager that if the universities surveyed the people paying the tuition (parents) that a few more sites would be censored. Shut up crybabies, you will be in the real world soon enough.

Some colleges don't have a lot of bandwidth for people to be listening to streaming Realmedia files or handle hundreds of folks simulataneously downloading MP3's. Try to keep that in mind as well.
