Are stainless cables rust proof or rust resistant?

Prepping a bike for my son for campus use at a major college (~55,000 enrollment). The bike will be parked on campus, outdoors. Thinking of switching out the working brake and derailleur cables for stainless to keep the cables from rusting. Was wondering if stainless eventually rusts? Bike will be used ~3-4 miles per day.
