Goa University Acronym

Not only does University of Goa or �U of G� sound better than Goa University and GU, 
but it is how it should be. Unfortunately the University Act passed by the Legislative 
Assembly has named it that way. You are not being too sensitive, in fact this had been 
suggested even before the Bill was passed in the Assembly, but as usual suggestions 
were not heeded to and the politicians did what they thought was best.

A better name still for the university would be University of Non Goans or University 
of the Corrupt or University of Looters. I think these should be seriously considered, 
as it would describe the university in a more apt manner.

SYMPOSIUM AT GU
. . . .

Could someone suggest to the University authorities that instead of calling 
our University by the name "Goa University", it should be called "University 
of Goa".

I think the acronym "U of G" sounds better than "GU" - for obvious reasons.

Am I too sensitive???
