And hosting websites is? I don't see the average student doing that either.

I do, but then I also hosted hidden services, relays and exit nodes...

Well, an average student isn't going to do anything interesting. The MIT I know works to enable its most resourceful and enterprising students, and is not satisfied with just enabling "being average".

Yes! An average student can learn to host their server very easily with public addresses, and that was how I got started.
