Using eduroam as a single SSID is a common approach in the Netherlands (and 
other countries in Europe). Using eduroam at your own institution significantly 
reduces the questions at the helpdesk when users are at a location where they 
offer eduroam. Various user groups (student/staff/extern) can easily be mapped 
on different VLANs as a result of RAIDUS attributes. All enterprise Wi-Fi 
solutions support that. A VLAN between two controllers of nearby sites is 
another way to resolve the sitution Jerry revers to. 
In the NL, we have a site that give people insight if there are problems with 
eduroam at other locations:

    Hi
    
    Jerry's comment reminds me: we have sites that are close to another 
university's and it has created weird things a few times where the STAs  will 
associate with the other U's Wi-Fi instead of ours and thus cannot access 
everything that's available on campus. We mitigated it by working with the 
other U to tweak coverage.
