It made me laugh and wonder why do we always go for such names? I’m sure we have lots of creative people in Singapore, including parents who came up with amazing names for their kids and we can’t name our institutions properly?!

OMG! Cracked me up!! Nice one :)

LOL!!

I wonder if the proportion of students at this new university will be mostly Chinamen as always.
November 3rd, 2009 at 7:21 pm
SO FUNNY! Good job!
FU! That’s a good one! Yeah! FU will be a good name for the 4th uni. & perhaps
maybe MERLION UNIVERSITY….MU….ministers university…IS ANOTHER NAME to be considered!!!
In reality, do we really need so many universities on such a tiny, weeny red dot of a country???
Sigh…. graduates in the near future will be
the counter cashiers at the banks and behind MacDonald & Burger King counters!
Where’s the foresight? I thought some legendary folks have great foresight?
Where’s the foresight?
Foresight long gone leh!
[[ probably explains the root word “legend”….just a legend;
don’t know real or bluf or fiction. ]]
Now it is greed–not foresight–that drives thinking and decision making.
Singapore…. S stands for “sinking”….S also stands for “sian”…. S stands too for “Sadness”.

HAHAHA!! This one is a classic!!! I think I’ll be giggling the whole day, damn you mr brown show!

@adeline, i think more universities are definitely a good thing. even if some people will always need to do the simpler and menial jobs, i’d rather that they had the chance to go to university too.

The uni is named Singapore University of Technology and Design (SU) which is quite ok. How fantastic sounding name does a university need to have? doesn’t universities around the world have simple names like University of Reading, Manchester Business School, Harvard University, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, Wu Han University?
@ Adeline: looking at your comment you seem to have fantastic names for the new uni and i’ll like to hear. Ah huat university?
November 4th, 2009 at 12:23 pm
why must the govt give such a weird name to the uni? i wonder if the students feel proud of their sch…not for me though.. :p
btw, this podcast made my day… :) FU RULES! hahahaa

this really cracked me up..
loved the acronym jokes.. me and a friend of mine were making some up whilst taking part in the competition..
but knowing SG, the fourth university might just be named “Fourth University” >_>

Proposed University Names (Connotation)
SUTD - Singapore University of Technology and Design
STUD - Singapore Technological University of Design
STD - Singapore Tech and Design (STD)
SSHIT - Singapore Sibei Happening Institute of Technology (SHIT)
STUPID - Singapore Technological University Promoting Intelligent Design (STUPID)
SU - Singapore University
FU - Farquar University (F*** You)
My personal preference
STFU - Singapore Tech of Farquar University
