What is Eduroam, how does it work, how prevalent is it on campus and does it use the usual UCLA authentication?

Question posted by Cathy McCann 
 My understanding is that Eduroam (http://www.eduroam.org/) allows UCLA wireless authentication via either UCLA login, or visitors from other participating schools can log in with their school’s login.
