    Default Is it unAmerican to say "Uni"?

    Discuss.

    Personally, I don't think it is. In fact, I'll go as far as to say that it's unAmerican NOT to say it.

    I called it college and all the non-American people got confused and thought I was younger so I started to call it Uni.

    Calling College "Uni" is like calling T.V. the "telly"

    It's just not something you do. =/

    That is one of the most obnoxious things you can call anything.

    That's what I first thought when I opened this topic, but I guess it means some kind of fruit. Probably something from the grape family.

    My opinion is biased because it comes from all of you saying Uni so much.
