Our AUP revolves around a core principle that users are prohibited from
interfering with the intended purpose of resources.  So we tend to assume
that unauthorized use of wi-fi spectrum is, sooner or later, going to
conflict with authorized use.
 
  Backing that up are two lesser elements:  We do not yet have 802.1X
deployed, so (unsecured) rogues are often jacked into ports on trusted
VLANs, and we generally don't allow people to plug "network equipment" into
our network without clearing it with the Networks team first.
 
  The upshot is that if we find a rogue, it's cut off from the network.  And
if it's not in a private office, it can be retrieved from the campus police
lost-and-found (first offence; we will have recorded the serial number and
MAC address, and have asked the police to record the identity of anyone so
retrieving a device).

I just wanted to here from other schools on what they are doing about
Rogues. Is your policy not to allow them but don't do too much to prevent
them. 

Do you let the dorms be the wild wild west? Or are you actively finding them
and removing them through one means or another. We are an Aruba networks
shop

and have some great capabilities for Rogue detection and prevention and
wanted to get a feel what other schools process is concerning them. Also any
horror stories that you would like to share?
