3 Mobile, UK here -- it's accessible.

It's shocking to me that your university administrator has put a block in place on a website that isn't obviously malicious.

VPNs are cheap. In this case, I think it's worth it to invest in one.

Virgin media is blocking some addresses but not that one so I presume they are on the UK blacklist.
