I'm just wondering what kind of switch would connect all of these fiber drops and wouldn't they be incredibly expensive? just a speed test for fun:

Do you mean they have another media converter at the other end of the line converting it back to Ethernet? That seems like sometime they wouldn't do for 250 runs in a dorm.

Yes, on their end the university uses a fiber switch. And yes, it's expensive.
