Disconnecting residence hall telephones

From The Indianapolis Star: Tired of watching dust gather on residence hall telephones, several Indiana colleges are pulling the plug on landlines, making their classes of 2014 the first in the state to be totally cellular. Without landlines, some colleges will save tens of thousands of dollars in hardware and hook-up fees paid to phone companies. Butler University, for example, could save up to $60,000 a year; Indiana State about $35,000.
