Yep, and I mention that when speaking to university admins, ad they like and understand the idea.  Though I have a feeling they may soon realise they’ll want more than a /48 to serve their campuses… and that’s an issue for campuses that want to follow 7934 and JJB’s draft.  We have three UK universities that have now gone for LIR status to obtain their own /32.

As an aside, we almost went with /64 per office in our initial campus rollout; the issue then was the extra cost of the routing image on $vendor’s hardware.
