On the name issue, I really think the Daily Advertiser knew which direction they wanted to go in, and the poll is verification of inclination. I should say Daily Advertiser as represented by Juli Metzger jmetzger@smgpo.gannett.com

For reasons too numerunous to mention I really like article University Fights For Identity by Marsha Sills msills@theadvertiser.com

Thanks Marsha, thanks Juli
