I administer a few EDU domain WordPress sites for a company as an employee. I am very tempted to add a '.' to the footer with a link back to my personal sites just to get a tasty EDU backlink. Is it really worth the risk? Does anyone have any clever ways for me to embed a backlink on the site apart from what I mentioned?

Yes why not? U can write <a href="">Website developed by</a> something like this which will look legit.

Because I dont have permission for it to officially link out. That's why I was just thinking of a '.' or something. Thank for feed back.

It's worth when your .edu site has good domain authority or citation, trust flow otherwise its just a referring domain. so build a natural Brand then cross-link it.

You can make the anchor text same as the background color. They will never know
