It looks to me like some little piggies have just learned a new word. Apparently no one has told them that the use of 'flagship' in a university system has been around since about the 1950s.
1850s...

It's like that guy at the party that tells a joke, and no one laughs except for him.
If you're the only one laughing, then it's a bad joke.

Capstone, I get it... you're a Navy grad, and that's a nautical term. However, I did associate the correct era for usage "in a university system". I was not trying to imply the word was originated in the 1950's.

On another note, I had a Midshipman perform his Capstone research with me when I was working in a Navy lab! Go Navy!
