       But Rutgers sets precedent for weird nomenclatures.

       flagship school of each state generally is very well-rounded,
       even if it has its own points of special strength. I think she
       was referring to the smaller colleges which lack a distinct
       identity and her plan is to further “specialize” those. Like
       what is Farmingdale to New Yorkers other than the school that
       SBU beats up in basketball by 40 points each year?

       I prefer "Stony Brook University of New York" myself.
       "University at Buffalo of New York" flows a bit weirdly, but it
       could work too.

       > Hochul’s plan includes a number of proposals aimed at higher
       education in general and Stony Brook specifically, including:
       >
       > Additional funding to construct a multidisciplinary
       engineering building on campus
       > Supporting the Stony Brook/Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory
       partnership to launch NeuroAI, an initiative that combines
       neuroscience and artificial intelligence
       > Expansion of the Stony Brook Center for Clean Water Technology
       research to include wastewater treatment technology and creation
       of the Suffolk County Wastewater Management District, both with
       the goal of protecting Long Island’s aquifer system
       > Funding for the modernization and repair of scientific labs
       > Funding for “Grand Challenges” that will encourage
       cross-disciplinary research
       > Increased funding to attract world-class faculty and
       researchers
       >
       > Hochul also outlined a healthcare plan aimed at rebuilding and
       growing the state’s healthcare workforce by 20% over the next
       five years, with a $10 billion commitment that includes $4
       billion to support higher wages and bonuses, and $2 billion for
       healthcare capital infrastructure and improved lab capacity. The
       plan also calls for increased training, attracting students by
       providing financial support for the education of healthcare
       professionals who work in New York State, supporting career
       flexibility for direct care workers, investing in digital
       innovation, making affordable healthcare coverage available to
       everyone, expanding and improving access to prenatal and
       postnatal care, establishing a state master plan for aging, and
       strengthening addiction, suicide, mental health and domestic
       violence services.
       >
       > Hochul’s agenda includes nine key components: rebuilding our
       healthcare economy; protecting public safety and taking strong
       action against gun violence; investing in New York’s people;
       investing in New York’s communities; making New York’s housing
       system more affordable, equitable, and stable; making New York a
       national leader in climate action and green jobs; rebuilding New
       York’s teacher workforce and reimagining higher education;
       advancing New York’s place as a national equity model; and
       making critical reforms to restore New Yorkers’ faith in their
       government.
