In addition to providing students with laptops, web cameras, headsets, and microphones as needed, we considered ways to supply the Wi-Fi connectivity required for using them. Although our approximately 230 remaining students in the residence halls could continue using our existing Wi-Fi, “eduroam,” the trick was providing access to the tens of thousands of off-campus students we serve – many of whom may not have a reliable in-home solution.
