1) Usually more net connected hosts. 2) Lack of adequate sysadmin attention/knowlege. 3) Vague and poorly enforced site security policies.
IMHO Microsoft has no concern about the security of any university; educational institutions will standardize on whatever OS the majority of their students are familiar with (=Windows whatever). No, the big priority in Redmond is winning (and keeping) corporate customers. A corporation can standardize around whatever the management likes.
