9412956布朗俄亥俄州州立大学请求NSF支持戴克学院连接到俄亥俄州学术资源网络（OARnet），这是NSF的中级网络，为俄亥俄州服务。 OARnet的一个主要目标是促进合作项目和机构之间的资源共享，包括州外的机构。 OARnet将提供运营管理和信息服务，并将为学校提供每秒5.6万比特的NSFNET连接，NSFNET是一个高速（每秒150万至4500万比特）的国家骨干网。 学校需要更大的功能和网络速度，以便能够访问超级计算机、图书馆，并沿着进行文件传输，同时能够实现更可靠的邮件系统。 学生和教师的研究将受益于这种联系。 这也是学校探索创新教育资源的独特机会。

9412956 Brown Ohio State University requests support from NSF for the connection of Dyke College to the Ohio Academic Resources Network (OARnet) which is the NSF mid-level network that serves the State of Ohio. A primary goal of OARnet is to facilitate collaborative projects and sharing of resources between institutions, including those outside the state. OARnet will provide operations management and information services and it will give the school a 56 thousand bit per second connection to the NSFNET, a high speed (1.5 - 45 million bits per second) National Backbone network. The school needs greater functionality and network speed to be able to access supercomputers, libraries, and make file transfers along with being able to implement a more reliable mail system. Students and faculty research will benefit from the link. This is also a unique opportunity for the schools to explore innovative educational resources.
