I go to Appalachian State University. They're very, very lenient compared to other colleges around our area. P2P is allowed (but capped really low). The only thing that can get your Internet banned here is going online without the Blaster Worm patch. The entire ASU network was disabled for three weeks because of it. If you get it and get on the network with the worm, you're fucked the rest of the year.
Western Carolina University (another college in our area) is a bit...different. P2P ports are blocked, and if you even attempt to download anything copyrighted then you're instantly disabled from the network for the rest of the year. Same with the Blaster and SoBig issues, too: if you don't have the fix and get on the network with it, you lose Internet for the year. There are ways to get past the port blocking at WCU, but the moment the University finds out you're doing it, you know what happens.
