You will not be able to grow amanitas in a dorm. Grow oysters if you want something legal. Grow boomers if u want some illegal

MooKitty,
Check out the vendors in the vendor section of this forum. They sell legal oyster mushroom cultures that you can grow and they list what they will grow on.

Shiitake do well in a jar inside a shotgun FC. But that means you have to have a rubbermaid tote thingie. You could always do a shiitake block under the little plastic tents they send you. Grow an oyster cake in an empty gallon jug of milk. Invitro grow bag of reishi.

There are many ways to grow oysters and shiitake. Straw logs would be too much for a dorm I agree. Either way you will need a stove which I know are not allowed. I think even hot pads are banned. You need to pressure cook and pasteurize. I see thoes being your two biggest challenges

i'd say grow reishi
it'll give you a good learning experience, if you ever wanna grow cubes. they are supposedly easier to grow. you can even fruit straight from jars if you use sawdust. search for some of RogerRabbits posts on the matter.
also they have numerous health benefits.

There are many vendors you can buy pre-made pre-sterilized substrate from. They will also tell you which are the recommended substrates for each kind of mushroom.
Also, there is an edible mushroom cultivation forum in this site and a section of the site is dedicated to growing edible species.

mookitty,
if you want really good advice, that will tell you everything you need to know and more.
get RR's dvd:
http://www.mushroomvideos.com/
it was made by RogerRabbit, he's a sponsor here now, and he knows his stuff. i havent had the chance to view the video myself, but i'm sure its top-notch. i plan to buy it if i ever attempt to grow edibles.
that or the forum is full of information, but you gotta search for it.

No need for an oven or a pressure cooker. Just whip out your cc and check any of the following Shroomery Sponsors.
