<p>trollnyc, I don’t see how the Wall Street Journal correction demonstrates any confusion about the identity of the University of Chicago and the University of Illinois at Chicago. I would have interpreted the error as mistaking the order of the propositional phrases in UIC’s full name; this might possibly have passed the editors due to recognition of “U of Chicago” and ignoring the rest.</p>
<p>And anyways, name recognition is a dumb thing to argue about. I didn’t know what Duke was until I watched the Dukes of Hazzard (Daisy goes to Duke). And yet I’m turning out fine . . .</p>
<p>EDIT: and for the record, University of Chicago at Illinois is a pretty sweet name. UChill . . .</p>
