- mrandish 3y agoI did consider that while writing and I decided any reader not from here and unfamiliar with our federal/state divide would understand "U.S. Government" to mean all levels of government. Pedantically, I believe there are federal universities such as the army, navy and air force academies. There are also city colleges and all of these "government institutions" are funded or controlled by federal, state and/or city taxes which causes them to fall under additional constitutional restrictions.
