Richard,

    Simple rate limiting is probably what you're looking for. But that
affects everything. Since it's a college, I'm willing to bet a lot of your
traffic is file sharing apps, like Kazaa. I'd say prioritize your traffic
with buy-in from administration, and then use Cisco's NBAR or something like
that to find the file sharing apps and rate-limit just those. Check the
archives for NBAR threads. HTH.
