[NNagain] The Whys of the Wichita IXP Project

[Robert McMahon]

For education and modeling. Students used to run on campus radio stations as an example. A modern world requires understanding things like IXPs. 

The original statement is a bit facetious. The so called data center building for $305M is really not such. It's about a landmark building to serve as a focal point to sell the university. Kinda like a church spire or something. Humans seem fascinated by such types of buildings. I think what's taught and what isn't is a better focus.
