Abstract

It's lunchtime in the student lounge. Taco salad, a coke, CNN Headline News on the TV, and now...wireless email! In the summer of 2002, Computing Services installed a wireless network in selected areas of the Law School. Students can now use their laptops to check email, perform research online, chat, and access the Law School and other web sites using a wireless network card in these areas. The wireless network is available in the Law Library (both floors), the Student Lounge, the Dunning Foyer, the clinical and journal offices, and the outdoor areas surrounding the Law School. Students can access the network with any 802.11b-compliant wireless network card, though the university recommends the Enterasys card, which can be purchased on the 3rd floor of the USC Bookstore for about $125. Once you obtain your wireless network card, be sure to register it with USC and install the required VPN (virtual private network) software. All of this can be done by visiting the web site mentioned at the end of this article. The Law School's wireless network project was part of a larger University project to implement wireless throughout the campus this summer. The wireless network now covers approximately 70 % of the USC campus, and efforts were made to install wireless in all "common areas", such as libraries, the Alumni Park near Tommy Trojan, and the McCarthy Quad in front of the Leavey Library. Approximately 100 law students and about 2,000 students across campus are currently using the wireless network. (continued on next page) Inside: Library News.............................2
