Internet In The University

During the last time I had to do some paper work at the university (faculty of medicine), which by the way went smoothly, one of my friends took me to show me the new internet section for the students.
So eventually there is internet for our student to conduct their research and prepare the graduation thesis....
That was a joke..
It is probably a good idea to have something like this available to students especially those who can't afford it at home, or those who came from outside Damascus to study here.
But this is how internet is used: there are like 20 stations. Every computer has the capability of being fully accessed by anyone and downloading, uninstalling, saving, playing and seeing every single thing you can think of. There are no restrictions on PC use which is bad.
Secondly, these are the topics for the 20 PCs in the section: Hotmail, Hotmail, Yahoo, Yahoo messenger (with heart environment), some Turkish university site, ECFMG (that was my friend and me), Aljazeera, Hotmail, some free email, islam online (or something like that), Media player, Yahoo, another islam online site, some music site, Hotmail, another chat, some email site, download sites, and so on...
I wonder whether any use them for scientific purposes. That is a different discussion in itself, which I may write about sometime.
The good thing is that everyone is allowed only 30 minutes at the station.
