My school banned D&D as a form of gambling in the 1980s. They shut down the D&D club and everything. I was VP of the science fiction club, and we were supposed to sign a statement that said we understood that we would not condone gambling or game playing of any sort, and this included board games. I never signed it.

You're gambling with your time. If you roll badly and die, you have to make a whole new character sheet.
