Long Description:
Having WiFi access has become essential for many people, but there are many people who cannot afford it or just cannot connect due to building structure or location. Internet access is very important because times are changing and so is technology. The Cambridge Public School system is now requiring young people to work on computers and other devices to do homework, projects, PowerPoint presentations, and research and all of these tasks require an internet connection. Inman Square and Russell Field provide important points for meeting and gathering for Cambridge residents. Adding WiFi to Inman Square and Russell Field would make it more convenient for people to access internet and communicate as well as save people money.
