Five licences are not enough for teaching on the university.
They should make a deal with a campus-license. A very big licence, like the IDL
30-day-trail-licence, but for ever. I think this is a very cheap effective publicity for
IDL, too.
It is not possible for a university to buy 100 licences. So there is only the way to change
to Public Domain-Software, like kohros.
