I would install Firefox and Safari, and be done with it. Both work on Windows and Mac, and FF works on Linux as well. When Chrome gets a stable version for Mac, Linux, and Windows, it will be worth considering in the mix as well. The beta version for the Mac is particularly grabby when it comes to personal info, but I believe this is less of an issue on the other versions.
IE8 is much better than IE7, but that's not saying much. IE is also limited to the Windows platform.
Cheers,
Bill

Subject: Chrome vs. IE 7(8) vs. Firefox
Questions for the above mentioned browsers: How would you compare them?
Would you recommend installing all three on computers for student use? I've
read that Google Chrome is bad about collecting user information "even
before hitting enter." What are your thoughts on this?
Thanks for your time,
