i'm just assuming the university network has an internal firewall that blocks me from scrobbling, but is there any way to verify that this is the problem?

If your university happens to be using a Microsoft proxy server I'm pretty sure it's requesting NTLM authentication which most programs that support proxies don't support...

Well - the HTTP requests between Foobar2000 and the proxy server for a start?

The "Follow TCP stream" command in the context menu is your friend - just fish out one of those HTTP requests, right click on it and roll with it...
