The Campus Agreement only covers upgrades to OS’s. In order to perform a clean install on any machine in which a licenses does not exist, such as a Virtual OS using either VMWare or Virtual PC/Server, no original licenses exists, and therefore the Campus Agreement does not cover the installation. You would need to purchase the full retail version of the OS. The only exception to this rule is running Virtual PC under Vista, in which case the Enterprise version of Vista licenses 4 additional VM’s local to the system.
