Commuters at Trinity Western University had a pleasant surprise when they arrived back to school this fall. Rather than having to spend $155 on wireless internet for the year, each commuter with an active TWU account can now enjoy free wireless internet on campus.
“We could get enough of the budget allocated so we could eliminate the fee altogether,” said Stephen Morris, the Executive Director of Information Technology.
Morris believes that free wireless is an essential service for the university, and just one more way that TWU is trying to improve student service.
Second year commuter, Suzanne Cailliau, is excited about the change. “Other universities have it,” she said. “It’s good for us to get on board.”
The only people who will still be charged for wireless internet service are conference guests, whose wireless charges will be worked into their package fees.
Now you go...
