 +[03] HOW CAN I BECOME A STUDENT ON SDF?
 +  
 +     Do you have an instructor?  Are you K-12 or in college?  There are 
 +     always going to be more students than instructors on SDF and if you
 +     are current enrolled you can propose the idea of using SDF to your
 +     conventional instructors and see what they think.  Some of the 
 +     benefits of having a classroom on SDF are:
  
 +     1.  Instructor/Students can manage their own accounts.
 +
 +         Typically at community colleges, universities and schools
 +         their is quite a bit of beuracracy involved with direct 
 +         UNIX shell access.  SDF provide both instructors and students
 +         with the liberty to create and delete their UNIX shell accounts.
 +
 +     2.  Less access restrictions.
 +
 +         Even if you do get a request through to have accounts created,
 +         you are typically limited by tiny quotas, slow machines and
 +         access to programs/utilities 
 +        
 +         SDF allows the instructors to determine exactly what they want
 +         their students to use.  As well, SDF provides access to more
 +         esoteric and newer programming utilities.
 +
 +     3.  SDF is for a lifetime.  
 +
 +         After a semester is over, or when you are no longer enrolled,
 +         your account is typically removed from a university or K-12
 +         system.  SDF allows both instructors and students to become 
 +         permanent members of the organization.
