Are you wanting to commute on campus as well?
I would first locate a bike shop and ask to make an appointment with their fit specialist. I would determine if a women's specific design or a unisex design would fit you best. Then you can start narrowing down your options.
May I suggest a versatile multi road bike such as a Specialized Sirrus, Trek 7.3 FX Jamis Coda compact for starters. If you are wanting something with more of a road bike feel, a Specialized Dolce comes to mind.
