One of the sysadmins at OSUOSL got in touch with me and clarified that
they're okay with giving root to groups who'll take responsibility for
managing their machines, so that removes the question -- sounds like
someone should ping OSUOSL and find out whether they'd be an
attractive alternative to the MIT hosting.

Thanks,

- Chris.
