The student might risk being locked out of university services that are contractually bound to university IP addresses. 
(Think subscriptions to academic databases managed by the libraries.)

Good afternoon all,
 
I’ve received as request from a student who wishes to utilize their own personal VPN on our campus.  My questions to 
the group are:
 
1.       Do you see any risks to allowing this, and if so what are they?
2.       Do you see any benefits to allowing this and if so what are they?
 
Thank you for your time.
 
Neal
