What about Universities that also cooperate with police forces, for example? 
They deploy both?

I know our university police cooperate quite closely with local and state 
forces.

Fair enough. I should have re-read your email to remember the original context 
of the statements before responding.

My understanding is the primary goal is for public sector entities to work 
better with each other (and optionally, places that frequently work with public 
servants and wish to provide the service). For example, a police officer's 
devices connect at the police station and the court house, the EMT's devices 
connect at the hospital and firehouse, etc. As for the security side, fire my 
previous comment toward the public entities.

Maybe the solution is to abandon both eduroam and govroam and create a global 
“unsecureroam” that everyone can use, and understands its posture.

@Jeff - If you are concerned with users accessing sensitive services over an 
inappropriate network (e.g., anything that is not the local campus network), 
then only make the services available on the appropriate networks (e.g., vpn). 
The same false sense of security exists when someone is working from home, and 
that is something that is already happening all the time. If your security 
model doesn't account for this, then it is already broken.
