Internet Bandwidth --> How did you come to your level?

Hi Everyone,

I really enjoy the list and have been reading for the last few weeks to get
a better sense of the issues facing independent schools and technology. My
question to the list relates to internet bandwidth. I am sure there have
been may threads on this in the past, but just wondering what metrics you
use to measure what is sufficient for you? Does it make sense to try and
gauge how much internet connectivity you need by student count or do you
break-up the connectivity between faculty and students? Have you isolated
bandwidth-intensive courses or done any segmentation or isolation at all? Do
you use and QoS to handle application/device priority or is that not really
a concern for independent schools?

Thanks and any feedback appreciated,

Jonathan
