Re: gamer clubs

I encourage our students to do this. I wish they did more. We have a student game room and have various consoles they 
can use. We've had students bring computers up here to game on. The game room is handled by our student life staff. As 
you know, community and technical colleges are different animals when it comes to student engagement and their level of 
participation in campus activities. Students who participate more tend to persist longer and reach their educational 
goals more than those who don't. I try to encourage them to be active on campus and this is one thing that some of them 
enjoy. I think of it as being like the pool tables, gym, fitness center, etc. Just another recreation resource.

Subject: [SECURITY] gamer clubs

Hello, I have been requested to provide connectivity for a gamer club using the college's network and internet 
connection. What are others doing? Am I over reacting by not allowing such activity?
Thanks much,
