I know about two newspapers who regularly say "ETH Lausanne", and I suspect these articles are written by similar pedants as some commenters here appear to be.

- eqvinox 3y agoMy original motivation in posting was really to spread the understanding that ETHZ and EPFL are sibling institutions; I knew both institutions from some comp sci bits but never made the connection until a while ago. And then I noticed a bunch of other people didn't connect them either… (I mean, it's not super important to understand these two are related, but honestly I feel like it makes them even more impressive. ETHZ already has a MIT-like reputation, with EPFL not far behind. The Swiss are clearly doing something right with their technical universities. And it's a 100% quota too, these two are the only ETHs/EPFs.)
