At our college, we would like to share a 20MBIT internet connection.

The maximal range is about 30 meter from the router to the last client.
The building consists of concrete walls, so what router should we buy to
be able to cover the the entire area?

Speed isn't that important, but ofcourse at least 20MBIT would be
optimal.
It's also best that it uses the b/g-protocol - otherwise we need new
networkcards also.

And how does this relate to either cellular telephony or Verizon
wireless? ;-)

The router shouldn't matter as they are all set to the same transmit power
and each computer will also have limited/capped transmit power. Be sure the
router has the latest firmware so everyone can communicate with it. The
fringe users will get less throughput due to weaker signal strength... such
is electromechanical radiation.
