FordGuyHTX Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 (edited) The University of Houston System (UHS) has put on hold a name change for the University of Houston Edited March 17, 2009 by FordGuyHTX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmancuso Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 how can anyone confuse this: with this: ? and the "UH" in UHD is an asset to that school because UofH is widely viewed as a decent university so the association with it should be highlighted. i transfered from UH (central) to UHD after a semester...because UHD had far more evening classes and i like the fact that i still have 'university of houston' on my diploma. also have a masters from UHCL.

EMME Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Umm, hello...Houston is not in South Texas. We are in Southeast Texas. Brownsville, Kingsville, Corpus Christi...South Texas. Houston, Beaumont, Conroe, Huntsville, Galveston...Southeast Texas. Okay? OK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMME Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Yep, I agree Cullen State or Cullen Robertson State, but that is actually what UH proper should be called. It would not exist as a major university were it not for them. Leave UH-Downtown as UH Downtown and rename the main campus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samagon Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Is it too late to say that I want the name of this school to be named "Sentral Houston Institute of Technology"..... Someone needs to tell the people who feel that they are going to lose the prestige involved with UH by having the school change its name, at least it doesn't say 'devry' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samagon Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I hope I dont get banned for saying this but quit being an asshole samagonsorry to have offended you.Personally, when I am hiring someone, the college they went to is the last thing I look at.Whether it says UHD, HMU, UH, Harvard, I don't care. At the end of the day, I am interested in a persons ability to learn.And to top it all off, I actually have hired people who have gone to devry, UHD and UH.I guess I'm just not that sensitive to the name of a place that people go to for their higher education, a person is only going to get out of it what they put in to it anyway, that is true no matter what the name of the place is.
