OK. So here is the deal. They are just gonna put a bunch of Cisco 3750 routers and put VLAN and firewall on it and separate every groups. But here is the problem:

We had only one port coming in from the university and then I have my own switch and firewall to serve and protect the intranet. Now that we should move to their (Univ) switch, we need to pay for every port (!*!$#) that is on their switch. The reason we have the configuration we have right now is because we wanted to avoid this very thing. Now please suggest alternatives. I will be happy with 100 clients. I need to make a deal but an educated one with the univ. This is why I am asking you guys.

Thanks
