What's the output of 'ip route list' on your home machine when the
VPN is disabled and enabled?  Are you setting a default route over
the VPN or manually setting up routing?

Does running
  ip route add 144.32.0.0/16 dev ppp0
help?
(where ppp0 is your VPN network interface, yours may differ;
'ip link list' will tell you).  There may be a more exact
definition for the university's netblock, but this works for
my purposes.

Roger
