Summary

The State of Minnesota is contemplating the establishment of a microwave system to transmit television signals between its institutions of higher learning. Factors to be considered in planning this educational interconnection system relate to the planning of similar systems and networks of systems by other aggregations of states, universities, and organizations. It is especially necessary to place such system-design development in the context of the rapidly changing technology of communication. The flexibility and variety of communication techniques provided by a network save money over the life of a system and improve educational performance. Other aspects of the new technology to be considered are sophistication in computer capabilities and cooperation among institutions of higher learning. Two specific problems must be dealt with: that of copyright laws, and that of laws related to common carrier tariffs. (MT)
