Since NAT has almost nothing in common with the host's network connection, you can just use the VMware integrated DHCP server for the VM's to assign the IP settings. If you want to assign addresses manually, take a look at the "Virtual Network Editor" to find out which subnet is assigned to it and configure the settings according to this subnet, then assign an IP address between 192.168.x.3 and 192.168.x.127, subnet mask 255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.x.2

If the Host has Internet/Network Connectivity, then if the Virtual Machine is configured to use a NAT Network Adapter and you have not messes with or modified the default VMware Workstation Network Settings then the Virtual Machine should automatically have Internet/Network Connectivity without having to modify anything.

Why not to use "Auto-Bridging" to get IP addresses from your campus to your VM.
