weird thing, can see in screenshot computer name andrew-[lastname] remote management says andrew-bootcamp.
if know how fix without wiping on system mush appreciated.
 

you can change computer name was, don't know remote management, though name should change computer name @ least after restart.
if doesn't work, ask school's network administration help, if set in first place.

have never had problems school network because computer name different, in 2004 , 2005.
