You do realize that federal CYA requirements prohibit them from allowing
just anybody to use it.  Even city-wide wireless would require that you
have registered to use it so that if your account is seen abusing it,
action may be taken to disable it or track back to you.

A larger organization (large enough to wire a city) can't get away with an
open access point like a little coffee shop can.  If they do, who knows
what will be done with it.  The university's decision to limit access to
people they can track is correct.
