actually, you are right, django models do provide id.. but this uid

Doing so raises questions about investing primary keys with real meaning. It is possible that you have a good reason for doing so but it is generally a bad idea.

Personally I would go with the Django auto-incrementing primary key and keep the apparent uid as a CharField attribute of the college.

ymmv
