For each college symbol or logo shown below, identify the name of the university and its nickname.
Then place each nickname in the grid provided. All but two of the nicknames end in the letter s.
The college logos are arranged from left to right and top to bottom by the number of letters in the college nickname (and then alphabetically within each range). The first three nicknames contain four letters and the last two nicknames contain ten letters.
