I'm not averse to mentioning departments that use Linux, but I do
prefer solid evidence (say, an official department computer support
page that clearly indicates Linux is supported, or a good page
describing
how and why Linux is used in the department).  Fuzzier indications
of Linux use are I think handled well already in my google search
tallies.
Got a good link for me?

That's wonderful.  Do you have a URL of an official University page
that has evidence of this?  (Not trying to be picky here, but I'm
trying to convince the skeptics, not the believers.)

Thanks,
