The Free University of Central Canada isn't big or prestigious; in fact you hadn't even heard of it until you started surfing sites that catered to more 'alternative' types of education.

Fort Uranium Community College isn't big or prestigious, more of an oversized rural high school than a proper college. But the tuition was cheap (by comparison) and the degrees were recognized. Those are two very important things for a student who doesn't want to add the word 'starving' in front.

Some people consider the term 'nerd' to be offensive. You wear it like a badge of honour.
