Here at Texas A&M University (you know, the guys Notre Dame killed again
in the Cotton Bowl *sigh*), we've been pretty fortunate.  The network
administrators are fairly competent and concluded after analyzing DOOM's
packet trends that DOOM will be allowed just like any others in our gaming
policy (ie-when someone else needs it for work, you have to leave).

They had a discussion for a while on TAMU.GENERAL about how if a network
is properly setup and stable, even old doom (broadcast packets version)
will minimally affect traffic flow.  For a school of 43,000+ students,
these guys sound confident enough that castastrophe won't happen.

BTW, who cares about Notre Dame?!?  We can play DOOM here to our content!!!
