Hello LM_Netters:

        I'm trying to find out what services local cable TV companies are
required by law to provide to local schools and / or what they typically
provide.

        The company that provides our town's cable service (TCI / ATT) has
provided one cable line to just inside the building's outer wall.
They've indicated that it is the school's responsibility to extend the
line to the proper location within the building.

        The only other service they provide is one free subscription to
<underline>Cable in the Classroom</underline> (we have 45 teachers).  Ten
years ago they provided 10 free copies, but have gradually cut that down
to one for the last 3 years.

        If anyone knows what the law requires, I'd appreciate hearing from you.
I'd also be interested in finding out what services other schools are
receiving.  I'll compile a hit if others are interested. TIA.
