It is (from what I gather) an ITG2 dedicab. There are USB slots protruding from the left side of the screen mount, and all of the stickers / lettering are Roxxor's. As I said though, Extreme is definitely running, and the marquee is for 3rd mix. There was a white distribution sticker on the front below the buttons that said (I think) "Token Amusements" or something to that effect.

Some additional notes : the machine has potential but is clearly never played. The music is literally barely audible at best, the right pad has a perma-stuck right arrow, and there are no scores or unlocks available yet. The left side functions.. if you don't mind basically sight reading. A little TLC and it could become a prime spot on campus.

Huh, that is pretty random. It's good that IU got a machine in the dorms, I would've loved to have one in Read my freshman year, too bad it's in what sounds like terrible condition.

This pretty well means it's a DDR cabinet that was at one point converted to ITG, then was converted back to DDR. ITG dedicated cabinets have their USB slots in the middle of the front underneath the monitor, between the start/select buttons. ITG dedicated cabinets are also styled like Pump GX cabinets, not DDR cabinets.
A normality test:

If you are no longer connected to the internet, you need to apply more wax to your modem: it'll make it go faster.
If you find this funny, you're a nerd.
If neither of the above apply, you are normal. Congratulations.

Yeehaw McKickass is visiting from Chicago this weekend. We're talking about taking a trip down to GXS tomorrow (Saturday) night. Would anyone be around to meet us there? If not, we'll probably stay closer to Indy.

I played it last night before work, it is a bit janky still. The worst part is the room creates a huge glare so I couldn't even see the screen =( You have to buy tokens with a campus access card you can't just use quarters or put in a dollar bill anyways, so you have to load up your card (only in increments of 5, 10, or 20...). Maybe we could buy the machine from them and take it for ourselves lol...
