Wireless Network Interference

Question: What can I do about interference sources for campus WI-FI networks?

The IT Guy says:
Wireless signals may pose an unknown health risk to those with specific medical conditions. For example, one of our wireless vendors mentioned a college campus where the network link would go down at a specific time each day. The cause: a student with a RF transmitter implant to help him cope with a medical condition. The student's class began at the same time the network went down. In this case, it was the student causing the network outage, but the reverse can also happen.
