Sure. No problem AFAICT.

I am not too familiar with what you can and can't do with the plugin
version - but you can definitely do this with Squeak in general. Squeak
is actually just a single executable and really don't need to be
"installed" in any special way, just run it.

I bet a student could "install" a full Squeak on his/her network share
(just by putting the Squeak files there and simply run it all from there
even without a central install.

What kind of work are the students meant to do? eToys? Young students?
Or Smalltalk programming?
