Critical look at Marquette University's decision to join the Business Software Alliance program Define the Line. The program, which adovates against students sharing commercial software, was launched last October and now has one participant - Marquette. The author asks, "Why did Marquette step up to the plate when no one else has? Why did it take 7 months to line up a single school to participate in the program? What's in it for Marquette? Is BSA providing some consideration?" Good questions.
