So having a lock on your laptop is going to stop someone with a gun robbing you? Then by that logic cars with locks should be safe from theft :P

As for requirements to connect to the campus network.

It seems as if the only software requirement is that you be running a modern OS:
Software Requirements

To meet campus minimum security requirements, your computer must be running an operating system that is actively supported by the manufacturer. Older, non-supported operating systems like Windows 2000 and Mac OS 9.X are not allowed on the network.
