School Name Failing Error Check

1	School names with initials in them are failing the new error check. Should the initial be kept in or removed? I'm currently keeping them in because they are part of the full name. school names asked 13 Dec '16, 10:07 msean21 221●39●42●49 accept rate: 0%

0	If initials are used in the official name of the school, it's OK to include them. You are correct to remove any punctuation from the name (other than the occasional /, or -). link answered 09 Jan '18, 09:35 East2West ♦♦ 656●23●24●30 accept rate: 2%

0	I agree and I also leave out the punctuation. Haven't seen any specific guidelines on this but there are a number of schools in my area that use initials in the school name. link answered 29 Oct '17, 13:50 awatters 41●4●4●6 accept rate: 0%

0	I've been keeping the initials in as well. Although I do remove periods after the intial if there are any. link answered 13 Dec '16, 10:10 RagingSeas 41●3 accept rate: 0%
