Schools stopped caring about that a long time ago! My alma mater went as far as changing our name against alumni opposition to make it easier to make money with our football program as whipping boys for bigger schools. Apparently a directional name, ie. Northeast Louisiana University, was too difficult for people to understand, so we changed to the University of Louisiana at Monroe. Not to mention, we were National Champions at the 1AA (or whatever it used to be called...that was 15 years ago
) and we moved up to 1A just for the money.
