Rename the town "UMass" for extra confusion. :lol:

I hate the town and area for shit like this, but I 100% support this if it gets the school to remove the town name from the school name.

This gets tiresome after a while. Would be happy to see UMASS-Amherst go on gear etc. To confuse things perhaps they should change the name to College since there are three schools in Amherst. Then Amherst College would be College College and UMASS would be University of Massachusetts at College!

I think some people who really believe in these things should take real constructive actions to remedy what they see as an injustice rather than just getting on a soapbox and whining. It is easier to complain rather than taking action

Amherst gonna Amherst. Why do we indulge infantile behavior like this?

Change the town name to be Massachusetts as well, so it can be like "New York, New York" except "Massachusetts, Massachusetts."

Because you know they won't remove the "-town name" at the end, so make it "University of Massachusetts - Massachusetts"

I know... wishful thinking on my part.
