Universities that do not use Free Software: Time for a boycott?

Relevance: 7.64
I received an email recently from a young man in Brazil who wanted me to come to his university and talk to the students and faculty about using Free Software.

I just do not have the time to visit each and every school. But I did investigate the university of the student and found that Microsoft was indeed a sponsor of the University. In fact, the university had a large banner on the front page of their web site talking about Microsoft as a partner. It was the first time I saw a university advertising a commercial firm on their home page.
