How easy is it to start a band at Uni?

Hey - the title pretty much offers the basis of the thread, but I'll extrapolate a little.


I've been in a band for over 2 years (typical Rhythm/Lead/Bass/Drums/Vocals outfit), but if I get the results I want then I'll be going to University in September, leaving the band behind for a while. When I go, however, I want to play in a band still, since it's such a great way to spend time, and I enjoy it so much. So, a few questions:

Is it easy to get a band together at University, even if you don't major in a music course?
Is it easy to find others who play instruments?
Do people even take instruments to Uni?
Are there places to practise?

Thanks
many famous bands were formed at University...
