I have a really good suggestion for you, allow private companies into the net, sell different kinds of connections i.e. 384kb/sec,1,10,100Mbit and let the students pay for what connection they want.
I myself live in a school-owned campus, we are stuck with 10Mbit/sec and 15GB data cap per day, this frustrates many of the users, that in turn wants to move to private apartments for better internet access.
A good working example is the student-dorms in Lund(south Sweden), where private ISP's were allowed into the network. Not only did the prices decrease marginally, the also bandwidth became cheaper.
I dare you to post a poll, asking what bandwidth the students want and what they are prepared to pay for it.

University's are meant to encourage development and creation, not hinder it with limits and bounds.
