Humans of OBU: Cone Bottoms

April 4, 2016

 

“Chapel. We never built the wireless network in JPAC to carry the traffic generated in chapel. We were asked to set up wireless access points in JPAC for certain specific people, like Joey Licklider at the time, Stephen Vaughn now and then or smaller venues. So we only have a few access points. Access points only carry 30-40 people and that’s all we have over there and that’s all we built it for. So you have 1100 or 1200 students all sitting in there trying to send tweets and Facebook and whatever they’re trying to do. It was never built to carry that kind of traffic.”
