As a USC undergraduate from 1975-79, I was shocked at the amount of students from the Central Valley of California… and even more shocked at the amount of $$$$ and affluence that they represented…Fresno and Bakersfield rivaled the So Cal Beach Communities as active members of the USC student population… and that hasn’t changed… it’s equa…

Fresno St is part of the California State University system. They may not be labeled/popularly known as CSUF, but their official name is what I wrote. Go to the school website and verify.
I’m not disputing what you wrote, I’m just amused that you can’t seem to grasp that we are both saying the same thing. When one says Cal State Fresno, the university part is implied, just like it is when someone says Cal State Fullerton or Cal State Bakersfield. It’s just that Cal State Fresno decided to be different and go by Fresno State.
That fits. I find myself to be very amusing. I must be because no one ever takes me seriously. Btw, I attended Cal Poly SLO when they added "University" to our already long name. I instantly got smarter...and more amusing.

Fresno State needs a rebrand. Pat Hill has suggested calling it "California State"
The official name of the school is California State, Fresno.
No, the official name is California State University, Fresno.
Cal State Fullerton has already appropriated CSUF.
