    1. I’d say go for a rolling, maybe do updates on weekends
    2. The students will very likely appreciate the customizability of Plasma or Cinnamon; if you want them to focus on work, GNOME (probably with some extensions) would be better. Tilers are a bad idea, because they take some getting used to
    3. Doesn’t really matter, company distros might be paid tho, and that can obviously get expensive
    4. Wayland if your DE has good support (i.e. is GNOME or Plasma), otherwise X
    5. Btrfs’ snapshotting capabilities might be useful to rollback the system to something working if the students fuck something up
    6. Immutable without sudo access should be the safest to hand over to people that you don’t want to ruin anything
    7. I don’t know enough about specific purpose distros

    If you already know Nix, NIxOS would be a good choice
