There is no good reason why West Hill doesn't have wireless.

Forgive me if this is posted in the wrong section.
I don't know if this applies to other residential areas (apartment-wise; I would assume the dorms near the dining hall would have wireless signal), but at least for West Hill, we should have wireless. The entire campus has wireless, but for some reason they just can't broadcast the signal a little bit farther. I was hoping when the community center was up and running that we'd get a boost in signal, but no - only in the center itself is it any better.
A wireless router costs less than $50. And not everyone would need to get one. Don't tell me that whoever handles all the money we give them can't afford the one-time purchase of a few routers to spread around to pick up the signal. That way each new wave of students doesn't have to go out and get their own.
