Doing a little reading on the history of U of O and OSU today. Found out that when the Eugene school was first created by the state in 1872, the Eugene school was called Oregon State University! Love it. It wasn't until many years later that Oregon Agricultural College got the name from U of O. They truly are sibling schools. Oregon State founded in 1868 and so a few years older.
