  Anything with Royal in the name should be treated as irrelevant.

    Nope, just because the name is archaic does not mean that the institution is irrelevant.

      I think the operative word is should. It should be irrelevant (or renamed).

        The Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden is one of our best schools for higher education, why should it be treated as irrelevant just because of it’s name?
