Wireless not proven safe, banned

Wifi has been banned at Lakehead University in Canada (somewhere) because the dean isn't convinced it's safe.

That’s because president Fred Gilbert won’t allow it
until he’s satisfied EMF (electric and magnetic fields) exposure
doesn’t pose a health risk, particularly to young people.

No word on whether they are banning booze, pot, or cigarettes, all proven health hazards.

"Somewhere" in Canada is Thunder Bay, Ontario.

President Fred Gilbert comes to us from Colorado where he is a former vice-provost of Colorado State University and holds degrees in biology and zoology. He was previously a zoology professor.

By the way, Lakehead University has a campus wide ban on smoking, but they do have a campus pub.
