Serious question. Most "Polytech" schools developed into (State name) Tech. Just curious why Auburn didn't.

Well I'll go with why my former coworker chose AU over Bama.
Auburn is a prettier name.

When I think "Alabama Tech" the first thought that pops into my head is a bunch of rednecks trying to build machines out of duct tape, plywood, and pvc pipe.

Make it easier to be annexed into Georgia and get the hell out of that backwoods-assed state.

No...most of those schools have a very long name that the media shrink to "State" Tech.

Pretty much, but only because I have been there. Someone in Michigan or California would be none the wiser.
