Computers at Yale

Yale University will not be left behind by the computer age.

New Haven administrators are steering the university into a network system of personal computers similar to those proposed for Brown and Carnegie Mellon.

"It's a solid goal," says Yale Computer Center Director Greydon Freeman. "Everyone agrees the campus ought to be wired."

Greydon says he's working on a formal proposal for the structure of the data system that should be ready by this summer. The system, he says, will likely use existing telephone lines as the link between hundreds of personal computers owned by individual students. The Yale Daily News
