He asked about why UMichigan is inaccessible from your network. How do you know it was a supported student activity and not either a malicious student, or a machine on the UMichigan network that's been compromised? Have you reported the activity against your home network to UMichigan?

You are actually correct that you were scanned by an official, funded project at the University of Michigan. The research team specializes in "internet-wide measurement", meaning they scan for vulnerabilities on a regular basis in order to get a sort of "Internet health report". Nonetheless, if this bothers you, visiting the IP that scanned you gives you instructions for opting out: http://141.212.122.194 http://141.212.122.194
