Well I can see having it be a rule in high school, but if you're in college then really, you're an adult and you should be there because you want to be.
College is the time when you quit having to ask before you leave for the bathroom, don't have to have somebody call you in because you're sick, etc.
If someone is going to be using a laptop, then they should be using it sensibly since they're an adult, and if not...well then, the bad grade they wind up with at the end of the semester will just be their own fault.
