Question about Internet access for educators

[Debbie Abilock <dabiloc@EIS.CALSTATE.EDU>]

Dear LM_Netter's:
I recently heard that CORE, which is the way that California librarians
and students can access the 'Net gratis, is thinking of charging $25. per
PERSON per YEAR for an account.  For those of you who are on state-wide
access, what does your system do?  (I am concerned that such a policy
will end up separating---as Gore has suggested---the haves from the
have-nots.  This, for example, would mean that a class of 30students
would end up costing the school/teacher/parents??? $750.  gasp....
