@classicalmama: At SAS, no internet in dorm rooms (not even wired). There are wired connections available in the common rooms, and I would often see kids on laptops or the two public iMacs when dropping off/picking up last year.

There are also no phone lines into the dorm rooms. Pretty sure there is a hall phone. For cell phones, here is the policy in the Parent Handbook (in condensed form):

Students may use cell phones ONLY in their own rooms
(in practice, I think there is an area outside the dorm where people go to make calls…partially for reception reasons)

Cell phones may not be used during study hours (gives list of days, times that seem to cover the school day then study hall)

Cell phones may not be used after “lights out” hours (exact time varies by form)
