IMHO, it would be a waste of time, if you tried to create a single area object (do I mean "closed way"?) to be the university.  That would just be most of the city centre.

The University is a collection of colleges, so could be a relation...  ...except that each college is probably in several buildings and they may not be in a contiguous area, so each college might have to be a relation of buildings.  So you would have a hierarchy of relations.


... or, if the general feeling is to go ahead with this change, just add a node in the vicinity of the Senate House / St Mary's Church for it.  It'd be no less wrong.

By the way, there is at least one "sensibly mapped" university in Cambridge:
