dorms and wifi should definitely be NAT. you can always give a public address if someone specifically requests it.

Do dorms have IPv6? If students can’t run servers, where does the next generation of developers come from?

I tried running a Pi in my college dorm. First, it was NAT, and when I requested a public IP, IT said they didn't give IPs to students. :/

IPv6 would be cool.

Back the 90's, all the dorms gave students static IPs. The Internet was unfiltered, no firewalls. It was a different time.

Yes, and they help protect as well. The percentage of folks who even ask will be low.
