Matt, You should get on the ucdavis.slack.com #linux channel. We've actually been discussing this for a few weeks. Bill Broadley has a method using an OpenVpn client instead of Pulse, though it might not work for 12.04. He's also been in touch with the library, so if it's a problem on their side, it might be fixable.
Thanks, Alex PS: Remembers he needs to try using the new VPN from off campus...
