School Snobbery


  I guess this has turned into my bitch and moan page.  Another thing I hate is when people call universities the wrong name.  They always leave the "State" off.  I heard a colleague say, "I watched OSU play Iowa yesterday." Really? How the fuck did Iowa get in the Big XII tourney?
  There's a big difference between Iowa and Iowa State. If I'd gone to Iowa, I would resent the hell out of people referring to Iowa State as Iowa.

Worst mistakes to make:

1. Oklahoma/Oklahoma State
2. Penn/Penn State
3. Texas/Texas State
4. North Carolina/North Carolina State
5. Arkansas/Arkansas State

(Okay, I might be regionally biased.)
