If the first thing a student tries to do on your network is to check their facebook or google something then they will get an error as you can't (or shouldn't for a university network) do interception proxy with HTTPS. A lot of other things are https by default these days too.
Maybe put interception proxy in place as a backup, but stick with regular proxy as well.
