I've been in a University or University-related office for the past 10 years.  The energy is great, the bureaucracy -- not so much!  I have three thoughts off the top of my head from my own experience:

1.  You can't be shy about asking questions and clarifying things. 
2.  With the sheer number of individuals in that environment, systems and procedures are essential, so get them down in writing. 
3.  Make "friends", if you can, with other admins in other departments that you work with -- they can be a terrific resource.  Make it clear that you WANT to learn, which, in turn, makes their jobs easier....
