Western Carolina BBQ IS the best. Period. Oh, and good idea. If we were a private school we may have some more leeway on this. We had considered the same about digital signage. Think: "That was the university news, this sign is brought to you by Bubba's WESTERN CAROLINA STYLE BBQ."
We did have a "no stressing before the testing" event where we got community sponsors and donations. We ran their logos on the signage for a while just as a thank-you. But we haven't headed toward getting them to actually sponsor the signage equipment or software itself. -- Andy Voelker Manager of Student Computing in the Technology Commons WCU Staff Senator Western Carolina University Check the status of your IT requests at any time at http://help.wcu.edu/ !

For context, this is nothing more than a curious notion. Other than the likes of the AT&T outsourced model, has anyone ever gone the path of "selling" an SSID for one of your own wireless networks? Something like "WirelessByBubba'sBarbeque" kinda thing? (Mmmm. Barbeque...)
