I DO WHAT I WANT. YOU HAVE PROBLEM?
I say Uni. Everyone in Australia says Uni. I thought it was just an Aussie thing. Guess not
Yeah, Australian's are always gonna say Uni. For example:exdee.I only need an 80.00 UAI to get into the course I want in Sydney Uni. Do I even need to go to school for the rest of the year?

I had the choice between two universities and one college. I chose the college.
EDIT: Also, people who go purely by syllables are dumdumheads. I mean, it's not because Uni is faster to say than College. It's because it's easier, and also probably because it's more casual, and also because College is not short for University, and they are different things.
When I say it's easier to say, I mean that there is less tongue movement in 'Uni' than in 'College', and that does tend to be a strong influence in the development of shortened and/or slang words.

BoB, please don't revive old threads.
*modwhores*
Great, mods breaking their own rules. Now I've seen it all, twice
I went to a University and I still called it college. Saying uni is as unamerican as cricket and communism are.
This is totally all Yams' fault.
GOD BOB WHAT ARE YOU DOING *CLOSES AND WARMS*
Yes, warms. Because typos are superior.
EDIT: Typos are also a strong influence on slang. Not to mention the American way of spelling.
