There shouldn't be anything stopping you from taking the key to homedepot to copy. Might as well just take your roomies key and copy that.
I don't know what University he is going to, but I went to the University of Illinois, and copying the roomate's key wouldn't work there because while both mine and my roommate's keys would open our door, only his key could open the closet door he was assigned to, and only my key could open my closet door. Also, the keys had distinct markings on them that would probably notify anyone examining the keys upon return that the key was a fake...and most notably they had "DO NOT REPLICATE" on the front.
But UIUC was like a lockdown school, we had ID cards, [humor] we had to scan to get into the building, and retina scans, secret elevators....[/humor]
Seriously though, I would copy the key because the worst that is going to happen is they catch you and make you pay the 73 bucks anyways
