Another vote to incorporate non-free as much as possible. Someone coming from Mint/Ubuntu etc. is probably not going to stick w/Mageia if the X server fails on first boot or their WiFi requires excessive tinkering. Some students may not have access to wired Ethernet connections and depend on WiFi, hence making net-installs for non-free drivers a catch 22.
