I meant clients for TOR were blocked.  Yes, for all students and faculty.  I believe the attacks were from the TOR exit nodes, but I will try to get more information from network administrators.  I have not tried bridges yet, but maybe I will obtain a bridge to connect to test in the future.

can you elaborate on that?
are these apparent attacks coming _from_ the Tor exits or are Tor
clients being used to circumvent network policy, etc?

do bridges work or is this identifying Tor client signature to filter?
