In 1997, American University was been included as one of the top 50 "wired campuses" in the United States by a Yahoo! survey. Since adding a campus-wide advanced wireless broadband network in 2001,
American University has been classified as one of the most
"unwired" campuses 
in the U.S. by
Intel. Recently, American University has expanded its wireless precense by teaming with
T-Mobile to first convert American University into the first HotSpot campus in 2004
and then again in 2005 when the Kogod School of Business became the first business school to integrate RSS data services with BlackBerry devices distributed to all graduate business students.
