We are a small, two developer web team. We host off-site and the original motivation was necessity as our IT department wasn't equipped with enough resources to handle 24/7/365 support for the web servers. We began with one out-sourced web server ...
I've been considering going offsite for the past 5 years. Changes in on-campus IT has made both on and off site preferable during that time. However the Patriot Act contravenes Canada's laws for privacy for Higher Ed, so any USA hosted solutions a...
As our campus has such a decentralized web presence there is a little of both. The vast majority is hosted internally but there are a few departments and other groups who choose to host off-campus for various reasons.
As to thoughts on the matter...

Well there was http://ratemycollege.us/ for a while but it then merged into the CollegeTimes site:
http://reviews.collegetimes.us/
College Prowler was the other was I was going to mention but looks like someone linked it.
This topic has come up for discussion again on my campus. Any other sites to add to the list?
How do you get the prospective students talking to one another? I've posted some ice breaker questions and a few students have posted replies to them, but then the conversation ended. Any ideas?

Now, I have to be like. Look this is cool. Yet, somehow deflect the questions about how come "we" don't have that. This is going to be a sucky day.

At this point in time we are moving toward an ActiveCampus "Portal" implementation (to replace our existing WebAdvisor system online for students). Based on the specs I've been given by Datatel, this implementation will involve the "Portal" server...
