Its possible that there are a bunch of "0wn3d" machines on campus that are 
being used as zombies in DDOS attacks... which would also explain why the 
outgoing bandwidth is a lot higher than the incoming, when in the rest of 
the  graphs, they are about even. I think they would be closer if it was 
due to napster (about the same amount of ppl serving mp3's to leeching).

Just another possible explanation...
