This is why we've added a form to request rate limit overrides. If mit.edu wants a higher rate limit, all they have to do is ask. We're trying to strike a balance between offering a free service that works for most people, and running the risk of abuse.
Also, even if mit.edu doesn't apply for a rate limit, people can issue certificates for 20 new sites under mit.edu per week, or 1,040 new sites per year. And in fact you can see a number of such sites in the crt.sh logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.mit.edu&page=1 (note: loads slowly).
