An electric grill on the other hand can be stuck or hid just about anywhere.

Another thing that reacts well is highlighter fluid. You can scribble all over just about anything with a yellow one and people can't tell. Test a spot before you go all willy-nilly, though. Also, keep in mind that a fresh coat of paint may not keep it from showing up under a UV light.
What kind of lights do you have at your uni? We had these huge overhead fluorescent lights and I had some friends go out and buy their own black light tubes and switch out the fluorescent tubes. You could always give that a shot--it was super-nifty and probably isn't against the rules.
