As a Student I do not particularly want the two to merge. I haven't been around very long, but I think having separate spaces is important. If I ever become a Builder I will want to be able to escape to a quiet world without jerk offs and annoying visitors asking when their app will be done.
It would definitely be easier to manage one unified server, and the Students would have more access to Teachers, Builders, and Staff. That being said, it seems to me that most Builders have projects going on in the School server. I suspect that they don't go to the Build server because they have nothing to do in the School, but because they do not want to be accessed by the Students.
I agree with PNW that lessons would be more advantageous for the Students and easier for the Teachers if mass lessons were held. But this can be done in the School server with or without a merge.
Some Students that are a little immature or annoying can become more serious and dedicated over time. But merging would mean kicking them out at the beginning and not giving them the opportunity to learn, and possibly robbing the build server of a potentially good candidate.
Just some thoughts.
