As flip4flop mentioned, mining with your laptop is not going to provide for much revenue.
If you have a laptop with hardware that's capable of producing a remotely decent hashrate, and it's one you don't mind running into the ground as you peg it 24/7, then you may as well sell the laptop and put together a real rig, or buy coins to speculate with.
However, since you're in school, you probably need the laptop and don't want to run it into the ground.
Large-scale mining with free electricity at a university is a bad idea. However, you could probably get away with a normal desktop with 2-3 graphics cards inside (you could remove the side panel, but once you have risers going all over the place, it'd be harder to claim that your desktop is serving a "legitimate" purpose, in the eyes of your university).

No you should not, not only will you only make pennies using your macbook you will also fry it rather quickly which will just ended up cost you a new laptop after a little while. If you are going to mine invest in the proper equipment up front. There is not get rich quick way to do it. Please do not mine with your laptop.
Hi guys,
How should I start mining crypto currencies? Right now I just own a macbook pro.
Since the fee is high and electricity is free I should totally be doing this!
