	I don't understand why you think this is coming from an educational  
institution.  From this header:

it looks like this was spammed from rtd.com in Arizona, an internet provider.   
I've since mailed root@rtd.com informing him of this spam.  My understanding  
of the American law is that a provider isn't responsible for the content of  
information sent out, unless he is aware of it.  Therefore, I make the system  
administrator aware of what's going on whenever I see a spam.
