Apple TV with no internet connection

[Catloverwrestler]

I am thinking about buying an apple tv for my college dorm and I'm not sure if the dorm is going to have any internet to connect to. I'm fine with not being able to connect to netflix and youtube, but I'm wondering if I can still access my iTunes library from my MacBook Pro wirelessly, without an internet connection?

Yes. You can do this by setting up a shared network with your MacBook and connecting to that network on the apple tv.
