Question about data available to network management

Hello this isn't strictly 'selfhosted' material but there seems to be a lot of networking knowledge in this group.

I'm thinking of leveraging my universities network to assist in downloading "Linux ISO's" via torrent. I thought a cool little project would be and old rasberry pi with a battery pack, wifi radio and an external hdd in a box would be cool.

Considering I have to use a university supplied email and password, unique to me, to connect to the wifi (only once then it connects like normal). How obvious will it be that I am downloading "Linux ISO's"? I'd definitely be running a VPN as a base level of privacy.

Also if there is a better community for this please point me in the right direction. Reddit's adds were annoying but it was definitely easier to stumble onto relevant subreddits.
