University of Michigan is one of the top universities of the world, a diverse public institution of higher learning, fostering excellence in research. U-M provides outstanding undergraduate, graduate and professional education, serving the local, regional, national and international communities.
On the eve of classes starting for the fall term, the University of Michigan has decided to cut the internet connection of all campuses.
The University of Michigan has more than 30,000 students and has a very large hospital with over 550 beds on its main hospital campus.
It will be interesting to see what prompted the securing of the network. Was this just focused at the hospital, students, or both? Only time will tell.
