How to protect information on a flash drive from malware?

At the university, you often have to insert a USB flash drive into various devices, often infected with malware. The most common of them changes the attributes of files and folders and replaces them with labels on itself. Is there a way to protect the data on the drive while leaving access to the information on it from any device (without using additional software)?

There is a script that clogs up all the free space and malware will never get to your disk. But then nothing can be written to this flash drive at the university. And then there are flash drives with a physical latch, by moving it to a certain position you won’t be able to write anything to it, and therefore you won’t catch the malware.
