	University of Pennsylvania - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Penn is incorporated as The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania.
		Penn is one of the nation's few private universities to be named for the place in which it is located (others include the University of Southern California, Boston College, Boston University, Georgetown University, Syracuse University, New York University, Princeton University, University of Dayton, and the University of Chicago).
		The university administrators told the student that uttered it that the term was racist because "the water buffalo is a dark primitive animal that lives in Africa." The questionable semantics, dubious zoology, and incorrect geography (the water buffalo is an Asian animal) did not prevent the university from pressing charges against the student.
