Any college students want to confirm what I think this is?

That looks similar to Academic NFR to me, although I don't see any NFR tag...

Yes that is campus media, it is essentially retail box stuff - the key that comes with it is a genuine, single key - but it is illegal to sell it off. I have a CD that looks exactly like that except it has green instead of yellow but whatever. I don't use it though, XP64 I heard wasn't that great so I just stuck with the 32 bit for now (they both came as a package together from school).

It's below the section I cut out:

All use subject to volume license agreement. Do not make illegal copies of this disc. Not for retail or OEM Distribution. Not for resale.

(emphasis theirs, not mine)

Exactly what I figured it was, guess I'll be getting my money back.

[EDIT]I know the key will almost certainly work, that's not the point. I have unlimited access to volume licensing of anything I could possibly want, if I wanted to use VL products I could do it for free.[/EDIT]

Doesn't seem to be what was advertised. Looks like one of those copies you get from school for ~$10.
