Another way to tackle this would be to have the student stacks
"subscribe" to the instructors stack by opening socket connections.
Then the instructors stack could just push out messages to the
subscribed sockets. This would save you from having to use multicast
packets and give you a finite and known pool of sockets to deal with.
(Although the peer-to-peer approach is most definitely the more
interesting way to go about designing it).
