Hello,

I work for the University of Kentucky computing center and am currently on a
committee to evaluate/recommend the course that instructional computing should
take over the next few years.  The main point of uncertainity deals with how
much computing should be done on PCs, how much on a centralized mainframe, and
how much on departmental systems.  I would like to get descriptions from 
other universities as to what the instructional computing environment "looks"
like; in particular, 1.) what types of machines do you have and in what
quantities? 2.) how are these machines connected? 3.) what types of applications
are run on the various machines?  4.) what advantages/disadvantages do you
see with your current setup? 5.) how is the licensing of software handled?
If I get sufficent responses I will summarize this data and post it back to
this group.  Thank you.
