Can you suggest a free vulnerability assessment tool to identify vulnerabilities in a campus network

I am planning to identify vulnerabilities in the campus network. Can you suggest a free vulnerability assessment tool if there is one?

I would suggest Nessus. It's an open source solution which has now been taken over by Tenable security, and they are taking it to a commercial level. But the core version of the same is still available as a free download. Only the add-ins for the compliance part comes at a cost.
