I'm trying to deploy procmail on a university computer with my student
account. The admins do not provide procmail, so I had to compile my own
copy. Everything works manually if I invoke procmail from the commandline.
But as soon as I use a .forward file to invoke procmail, nothing I do seems
to work.

I would bet that the mailserver where your .forward file is examined is
a different OS or platform than the one where you compiled procmail.

Now what's really interesting is if I remove the word "exec" from the
.forward file. Then no error bounced back, but the error message from
.forward is written to my raw_in file:
Right. The exec keeps the shell from processing the rest of the compound
command.
