Kristen French, the issue with using Unity would still be a kernel one if you use a later kernel version and it fixes the issue while using Unity.
However, if you intend on using Gnome Fallback going forward, please feel free to mark this Status Invalid. Otherwise, this would be pending https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1366432/comments/14 . ** Description changed: Fresh install of - edubuntu 14.04 LTS on a - laptop Dell latitude E6400; + edubuntu 14.04 LTS on a + laptop Dell latitude E6400; rather than allowing the user to log back in, the laptop crashes after closing and opening the lid. Shows a login screen as if the computer is locked, but the keyboard does not respond. Mouse pad allows movement of the cursor, but clicking on icons to try to shut down properly does not work. Must use power button to perform a hard reboot. Thus far has been a problem on two of these laptops with the same edubuntu install. - Used ubuntu-bug linux command to generate this report. + WORKAROUND: Use Gnome Fallback instead of Unity.
