<p>CUNY.</p>
<p>It’s one letter away from a horrible mass email mistake. Being so close to the letter “Y” on a keyboard doesn’t help either.</p>
<p>I’m glad it makes you giggle, becuase it would sure as hell make me angry (and I consider myself a pretty friendly person).</p>
<p>That will be my last post of the night; I need sleep.</p>
<p>Edit: People really do think this is the “Worst College Names” thread, dont they?</p>
<p>NY : Geneseo</p>
<p>Davidson
Chaminade
Colorado School of Mines
Drake
Lake Superior State
Gonzaga
Kenyon
College of Notre Dame of Maryland
Siena
Southeastern Oklahoma State University
Troy</p>
<p>My favorite names are Princeton, UVA(I like how the abbreviation sounds), Wake Forest, Lake Forest, Wellesley.</p>
<p>Princeton takes its name from the town it moved to (from Newark NJ, and before that Elizabeth NJ) when it was known as The College of New Jersey. Princeton officially adopted its current name only 10 years ago. Before that its legal name was TCNJ and it used the Princeton name only as a DBA.</p>
<p>I like the name Vanderbilt.</p>
<p>University College</p>
<p>The name says it all. Can’t be improved upon. That’s why there are University College’s all over the world (for example, Maryland, London, British Columbia). Nothing says college – or university for that matter – like “University College.”</p>
<p>Yale, Princeton, Duke, Georgetown, Stanford, Dartmouth</p>
<p>Princeton and Vanderbilt – their names ooze awesomeness and prestige.</p>
<p>Harvard, Yale, Stanford are close followers.</p>
<p>Vassar
Villanova
Gonzaga</p>
<p>Nyuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu</p>
<p>As much as it pains me to say it, I think Duke has a kick-ass name.</p>
<p>Middlebury and Dartmouth hands down. Very Old-English.</p>
<p>ORAL ROBERTS.</p>
<p>Yes.</p>
<p>Princeton and Williams. Williams is just badass.</p>
<p>Yale, Duke, Notre Dame</p>
<p>worst name is Gonzaga because it sounds like an STD</p>
<p>It used to be Beaver, of course, until they had to go and change it…</p>
<p>I really like Wellesley, Wesleyan, Princeton, Bowdoin, Barnard, Bennington, and Reed, for some reason.</p>
<p>Oh, and Manatee Community College. :)</p>
<p>based on a lot of people’s responses, i think a more appropriate name for this thread would have been, “which colleges’ reputations are you obsessed with?”</p>
<p>:P</p>
<p>Ball state of course.</p>
