Good catch -- the Google result is actually on an .edu domain but it redirects to the link I pasted above.

yep, Google makes it hard to copy the original link too which is annoying

Sidetrack, but I can recommend the Firefox/Chrome extension "Don't Track Me Google" which cleans up Google result links to be the actual URL, without Google's tracking redirect.
