University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, students voted on renaming their school in 2006, and voted overwhelming to keep their current state identity, even though it's not the main Wisconsin campus, which is located in Madison.
The top two vote getters were the existing UWM name and "Wisconsin State University". Names that focused on the school's city identity, like "Milwaukee State University" received very few votes.
The complete results of the student vote can be seen here: http://www2.jsonline.com/watch/?watch=1&date=4/30/2006&id=5474
Students at the oldest California State University (CSU) campus in San Jose, currently known as "State Jose State" should take note.
