Why doesn't MSU call itself tMSU?
The Michigan State University.
Seriously. I know it would cost some money to change the stationary, but why doesn't the school do this?

Yeah because we're not a bunch of *********s. We're not so insecure that we need some sort of qualifier to remind everybody.

Because we have class. I think that's partially what bugs rivals about us - deep down they feel bad about badmouthing us, because they know we are decent people.

I am glad we don't. I love making from of OSU fans who insist on saying "the". If we did it, the fun would stop.

and if we did call ourselves tMSU, we would tell everyone its because we are great and the best.
 to those who are saying we have class and are not stupid, if we had the name, we would flaunt it and make sure everyone said it

Since Ohio State begins with a vowel it's pronounced "thee" Ohio State University.
Somehow I don't think it would work for MSU

They haven't even got to changing the smokestack to MSU. This would really screw them up.
