nice list. Sadly Im sure people will pick a Uni based on if they can game on campus or not, lol
You have a point, hopefully our members know education > games.

Probably because its a gaming client.

Woot! College parties
I love that ITT Tech doesn't have working Wifi.
I only see two of the eleven schools I'm applying to on either of these lists (Johns Hopkins and RPI will both work) but Harvey Mudd should work as well since it shares a campus with Claremont McKenna. Anything else and I'll have to find out when I get there I suppose.

Being Able to game on steam at my university will not be a priority for me....

It's not a matter of blocking students from gaming, it's more to do with the ports that a university leaves open. Some universities really stress security and they block a port range that unfortunately blocks the ports required by Steam, so it gets blocked automatically.

well last year my school worked fine for me. I got uber-good pings there as well 
. i was used to like 43ms in tf2 and came home to the 90+ms ping here and was like omg lag!
ps. i attend California University of Pennsylvania. anyone that may be attending there contact me. I could use some eGO friends at school!
