How about the California University of Pennsylvania?
Is it a west coast branch of UPenn?
Could it be an east coast extension of the University of California system?

It is in fact part of Pennsylvania's public university system, located in California, Pennsylvania. And it was founded in 1852, which makes it the country's oldest institution of higher learning with the word "California" in its name.

There is a William Penn University in Iowa.

The average person doesn't really GAS where universities are located, anyway. Why would they? They might be able to link Harvard to Boston and identify their own state flagship and that's about it.

Berkeley..."that's in Minnesota, right?"..."is that in Boston?" (yeah, I know, Berklee).
There is a Berklee College of Music in Boston that is well regarded. Not as good as its neighbor, New England Conservatory of Music.
