McDonald, and the topic will be "Can't Stop the Music: Dealing with File Sharing on Campus." With P2P use continuing to grow even in the face of more than 11,000 RIAA and MPAA lawsuits—so far!—and with Internet2 making it even more tempting, the issue of music file sharing remains at the top of the IT policy charts. What does the Supreme Court's recent decision in the Grokster case mean for your campus? Who is Cecilia Gonzalez, and why should your students care? And what can you do to reduce the burdens file sharing imposes on your system and your time? This EDUCAUSE Live! session will give you the answers to these and other related questions. This EDUCAUSE Live! session is presented in cooperation with NACUA, the National Association of College and University Attorneys. Related EDUCAUSE Resources
