Dr. Fritz Dolak opened Ball State University's 5th Copyright Conference.
The theme is Copyright in Oz. That's appropriate for the disconcerting state of copyright today.
Right now, President Jo Ann Gora is giving the welcoming address.
She says that Ball State University, which she leads,
has more computers than students. BSU has over 19000 students...
[This year = 19849 students; 16:1 student-faculty ratio average class size;
>1:1 computer-student ratio]
Copyright law is a critical issue in higher education. The university wants to foster
ethical and productive use of intellectual property.
