I would expect most US universities to be logging netflow in the very least. Even if the Tor operator isn't keeping logs, it seems safe to assume the network operator is.
I'd be surprised if it was different for non-US universities - I'd expect this to be the case for every university with its own AS, and probably most without. It's not specific to universities either; it would be a rare ISP that doesn't retain netflow for traffic accounting purposes.
Perhaps we're entering a time when universities need to be producing transparency reports...
It also seems that since there is significant incentive to run exits in order to gain "traffic visibility," we need some sort of competing incentive. I don't know what that is, however. Or perhaps "extensive logging at exits" need to be part of a more honest overview of Tor.
hope everyone is well tim
