Those don't actually come from the email sender at the .edu. When I was the IT Mgr at a company we got hit with about 800,000 SPAM emails over a weekend that were using our servers as an intermediary stop. By the time I came in Monday AM, our company was virtually at a standstill, email-wise. Many of the "sender" addresses were at school districts around the country. Those email addresses are extremely easy to get, just go to any school district website and you'll see them published for all to see. The spammers "mine" the .edu sites for valid email addresses, then "spoof" the sender field with them. They find companies with "holes" in their IT security, then exploit them. It took roughly 2 solid days to purge all the SPAM traffic off our servers after we plugged the hole the Monday after the attack.
