That may be better than Brightwell, but it ain’t by much. Sounds like gas station wine.

This app is still terrible. No improvements have been made since the last thread on The W's name change. Just keeping y'all informed.

University admins and profs are some of the most impractical people. Can't even come up with a decent name.

There isn’t a name under the sun that you could get thousands of women to agree on. It’s literally impossible.

My wife and her friends from the 1970’s “W” understand that it is in he best interest of the University to change the name, they just don’t like any of the stupid, embarrassing names that are being forced on them. They won’t be writing any checks and the President of the University is in their cross hairs. My wife has reached the point of “whatever “ but I think a couple of her old friends are contemplating felonies.

It's interesting. The names all suck, but I can't envision putting a lot of emotional investment into pushing back. It's not like the tried to make them the Bears or something...

My wife was there at the same time and feels exactly the same way.

Mine was there in that time period as well. The suggested names make no sense to her.

You can't just make it the MSU School of Nursing because they have other majors. I suppose those could be moved to State.

Someone in another thread had the best suggestion.

Since EMCC is basically moving to the GTR, just make it the new main Campus of EMCC. I'm sure someone in scoba will object but it makes sense.

Anyways, State gets the nursing school. EMCC can have the other schools.

The ridiculous names are being put out to keep the old name. No sarcasterics.

I like Waverly University but at this point I think we should call it Faber College because it fit the administration.
