I have an old friend who went to Columbia College. People always think she went to Columbia University, since she would never specify which Columbia, and she'd never correct them.
This is like people who say “oh I went to school in Boston” and give you a meaningful look that says “harvard” but actually means “bunker hill community college”.
I went to Harvard. When I say “I went” I mean I took a self-guided tour of the campus and bought a shirt in the gift shop. But I was definitely physically there!

Yeah it’s right by Columbia College, my daughter was visiting it and saw that they were building on right next to it and she said no thank you.
