I'd agree with this - it's a fairly broad term but with a narrow
definition. If it's really restricted to tertiary student
accommodation, a name like "student_accommodation" might have been
better.

The dormitories you're trying to tag, are these open to the public? If
so, perhaps amenity=guest_house? If not...seems like a pretty esoteric
thing to be tagging, so perhaps building=monastery:dormitory or
something.
