Talk:CMU

31 December 2004

Central Michigan does not own the trademark to CMU. Do a search on USPTO's trademark website to prove it to yourself. Please stop propogating the false statement.

I agree with Andres. :) Your edit that the copyright issue was a "myth" was way out of line and non-NPOV. I think the current version (comment "wait--this is better") is NPOV and accurate, except for the "Carnegie Mellon tried to trademark CMU" anecdote, which I hadn't heard; feel free to clarify. Look at the page history; this war has been going back and forth since August.

Furthermore, regardless of whether or not Central Mich owns the trademark, it's certainly verifiable that (1) Central Mich say they do, and (2) Carnegie Mellon agrees with them. Happy New Year. —ajo, 1 Jan

In the same paragraph, they claim the word "Central" as a trademark. I'm not sure how seriously I would take this claim. --Daniel 19:03, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

CMU (disambiguation) → CMU – There are many entities known as CMU, both within and outside the United States. For readers in the state of Michigan, "CMU" is very likely to refer to Central Michigan University rather than Carnegie Mellon University. In Thailand, it is likely to refer to Chiang Mai University, while in Taiwan it may refer to China Medical University. This shows that the initialism has significant ambiguity in a global context. Given the number of universities and other institutions that use "CMU", I do not believe there is a clear primary topic for a worldwide audience. Even within the United States, the meaning of "CMU" may vary by state or region. Therefore, the title should not be treated as having a single primary topic. Cfls (talk) 00:35, 6 June 2026 (UTC)
