Since you probably should be coordinating with the campus police, I'd ask them for their advice. This happens to be one of their areas of expertise.

We have a number of rooms in which we would like to install surveillance cameras. The images from these cameras should be viewable remotely via some sort of secure UI. The cameras should also be configurable so that they would start recording based on certain triggers such as motion, changes in lighting, etc. The D-Link DCS-6620( http://www.dlink.com/products/?pid=410 ) seems ideal in terms of features, but since we want to deploy 11 of these, a less expensive alternative would be nice. Any experiences o recommendations would be great.
