		The four colleges and the university expect to take advantage of the current downturn in the fiber-optic industry to increase their data-network capacity, add redundant links to handle network outages, and reduce their local-circuit charges for data-communications services.
		The four colleges have been paying what a technology official describes as "exorbitant" rates for local telecommunications circuits to connect their campus networks to the University of Massachusetts, which serves as the data-communications hub for the consortium.
		But colleges that get cheap deals on fiber still face the challenge and expense of acquiring and managing their own optical-network equipment, he says, "and when you're talking about optical speeds and optical equipment, it's very, very complex stuff." UMass officials say they have network engineers on staff who can work with such equipment.

	An Analysis of Trent University's Five Residential Colleges
		The data indicate that the town colleges are the least profitable of all of Trent's residential colleges at a net loss of $154 and $45 at PRC and CPT respectively.
		Estimates from PRD on major renovations on all five colleges indicate Trent University should be spending anywhere from $600,000 to $1,000,000 per annum on deferred maintenance for the residence component of the colleges.
		Since the net loss per bed differs across colleges (as illustrated in figure B), this calculation provides the adjustment to average residential fees by college that would be necessary to support the same loss per bed regardless of the college a student chose to live in (as illustrated in figure C).
