  1. Case Western University? What's that... on Levitating Liquids In Simulated Zero-G · · Score: 2

    A friendly guide for reporters and editors on the correct use of our name.

    Our correct name is Case Western Reserve University.

    On second reference, simply use CWRU. It's that simple.

    We may also be referred to as Case Western Reserve, or even Case Reserve (especially if you're referring to our sports teams, the Spartans). Our name is a result of the federation of two previously separate institutions -- Case Institute of Technology and Western Reserve University -- more than thirty years ago. So our name is neither Case Western nor Case Western University (that's like "University of North," which is meaningless) nor are we just Case--unless referring only to the Case School of Engineering.
