I'd think about adding access servers first.
Get those student accesses off of the machine that the instructors are
on.
That's what access machines are for, spreading the user load out.
At MSU, with ~800 simultaneuos logins distributed across 7 access
servers we are not seeing load on the library server get much over 1.
Also as access servers are stupid, you don't need to worry about
backing them up, or make them quality hardware, one them goes down,
throw it out and stick a new one in.
