Canadian University Bans Wireless Networking, Citing Health Concerns

The president of Lakehead University, in Ontario, says that he will
not allow the institution to deploy a wireless network on the campus
out of concern that the electromagnetic frequencies such systems emit
could endanger students' health.

The president, Frederick F. Gilbert, became concerned about the health
effects of wireless networks after reading studies done by scientists
for the California Public Utilities Commission, said Marla Tomlinson,
a spokeswoman at Lakehead, a 7,000-student institution in Thunder Bay,
Ontario. The California scientists concluded that people exposed to
electromagnetic wavelengths might be at risk of developing cancer and
recommended further investigation.
