	is it necessary to have to type "university of" for a good amount of them? wouldnt the state name itself work?

	Same goes for having to add College or University after the name in some of these. Harvard is okay on its own, but Washington U required 'in St. Louis' and BYU, Grinnell, Auburn, Carleton and Oberlin all needed something later. Very frustrating. Plus, why doesn't the title say 'colleges/universities' since most of these aren't colleges.

	Agree about the inconsistency. I don't think you should need to write out "college" or "university of" for any of them.

	Even if you keep college or university, the order is all out of whack. Oklahoma is OU not UO. Plus there's no reason why some don't get the official title of University of College when others don't. Great idea... bad execution.

	You should add the District of Columbia so I can type in my alma mater.

	Oklahoma may be OU, but its still the university of oklahoma. Same thing with Kansas and KU. It would be nice if all states were included though...
