 I'm not sure what can be done to solve these problems, but I know it's a far bigger issue for college tennis than playing with ad's or the length of doubles matches.

Depends on the offense. For something like spitting in your hand before shaking your opponent's hand, that's so easy to catch that that player should be kept out of X subsequent matches and the team he plays on required to forfeit the spot. Starting with a 0-1 disadvantage for two or three subsequent matches would cause people to shape up real quick.

The harder stuff is the line calling because it's so difficult to objectively measure the difference between egregious calls and run-of-the-mill errors. How expensive is hawkeye these days? I would think the long-term solution at the college level is just to encourage D1 schools to adopt the technology on their courts. I imagine it's relatively cheap to operate once it's installed? At least for NCAA tournament games, they should absolutely utilize that, because it would totally obviate the advantage of making numerous egregious calls. Have ten straight hawk-eyes go against you, and you're probably going to stop calling crap. But maybe it's too expensive to install/maintain and/or staff its operation during matches. But that seems like the only fix short of a full line crew.
