While it's kinda lame it is far from a phishing site.  They even say  
on the submit form: "Yes! I'd like additional information from  
College.us.com and its marketing partners."  Chances are that you  
will actually get something from UMich (along with a bunch of other  
junk too no doubt).

Phishing is bad enough as it is, let's not broaden its definition to  
include all things we find uncool.

Best,
