The requirement (and it IS a requirement) is it MUST be 35MM and have
manually controlled exposure settings, so the OM-10 with manual adapter would
fit. Several of my co-workers have children in various High School
Photography classes,and I've loaned one an OM-10. BUT the local High School
newspaper, which has won national awards two years in a row, uses digital! Go
figure! At least (for now) they ARE teaching the basics (film basics that is).

or
basic starter camera, but I don't think it is only capable of producing
mediocre
pictures. The OM10 may well fit into the student (or at least budget)
category too.
