My understanding is that the eduroam SSIDs should function identically to the UofM Secure SSID, except that they require your full @umn.edu address to authenticate. Basically their purpose is to provide federated access to the U's wifi, allowing visiting @wisc.edu faculty (for example) easy access to the good wifi without having to have a guest account provisioned. Locally, anyone who can use UofM Secure can use eduroam. https://www.eduroam.org/ Thinking about this, there may well have been wifi outages yesterday, with all the student population suddenly flooding back into campus on new iPads, etc...
