And, to be fair, most people do think of North Carolina and would generally be correct -- but some don't. It depends on where you live.
Most Journalism schools say to spell out the name the first time and then use the initials after that if you want.
OSU means Ohio State, Oklahoma State or Oregon State, depending on where you live and what you're used to.
Another instance:
My wife and I graduated from O.U.
Our son is a senior at O.U.
Our daughter graduated from O.U. after spending two years at U.N.C.

after spending two years at the University of Northern Colorado.

Anyway, I'm amazed that these chapters can tap into that much money. Does the University somehow help?
