Well, MIT does make PGP available to any and all students and staff! The opinion I've heard is that if the US gov't doesn't want an international student at MIT to use the code, they should keep that student from coming to the US. By allowing the student into the US, the gov't is implicitly giving them the right to use PGP within the US. It is still illegal for them to export it, however any foreign national can walk up to any computer store and by anything they wish, and take it on the plane with them. Therefore, in an institution of higher learning, the same standards should be allowed. If the government does not want your student to have access to possibly "dangerous" information, then they should not be allowed into the country at all. Therefore, I say just make PGP available to your students. -derek
