Whoa ... this is getting complicated. I think I'm sorry I mentioned it.

Not with the educational discount. That's what they say, y'know.
Educational discount is only for the person to use who is eligible
for
the discount.
And the person who is eligible for the discount used it -- she made
a nice present of it.
I don't think Apple's prohibition would stand up in court.
What a miserable corporate mentality -- make things proprietary so
they can charge more, then offer a discount where they still make
money and then be so parsimonious as to try to dictate how the
equipment is used under such a purchase.
Alright then, she bought the system to have at home so she wouldn't
have to lug her computer back and forth from school.
How's that?
She even password-protected it so nobody else could possibly use it
except her (that should satisfy Apple) and she couldn't help it if
her father, being the master cryptologist that he is, figured out
her password and so is blissfully using the computer, all the while
she is unaware of such subterfuge of the very generous offer Apple,
Inc. made to the lowly students of the world.
That ought to satisfy Apple, huh? :-)
