Well, I think most universities have some sort of firewall. You can do a NAT (http://btfaq.com/natcheck.pl) and find out, or you can start to download something off of etree.org and if you see yourself listed on the peers list with your port number in red brackets, then you are firewalled.

There really isn't much you can do about it, however.
