Cal States? There are 5 of 23 which don't use the "CSU-City Name" and use "City Name State University" instead:
Humboldt State University
San Diego State University
San Francisco State University
San Jose State University
Sonoma State University
For what's it's worth, when I was an undergrad at CSU-Long Beach, there was a question brought before the students are to whether or not to officially change the name to "Long Beach State University". The measure was voted down. We did, however, officially vote in the 'previously unofficial' school colors of black and gold.

I don't know if things were different before or after I went there (mid-late 1990s), but I never heard anyone call CSULB "State" and I lived in Long Beach for 7 years. We called it "The Beach". Though, here in San Diego, "State" most definitely refers to SDSU.
Go Beach!
