UNO is no more a branch campus of UN-Lincoln than UIC is a branch of
UIUC. UNO is home to the Health Sciences center of the UNiversity of
Nebraska. Just like UIC, UNO is the home of the College of Pharmacy,
Med. School, etc. There is one major difference however. UNO has to
compete with the powerful (sports) UN-Lincoln cornshuckers, whereas
UIC only has to compete with...well, you know the rest.
I don't know for sure, but I suspect UNO like UIC also offers non-health
related programs. I don't know their total enrollment, but I can tell
they don't like being considered the little sisters of UNL.
 
P.S. I don't know their team's name. Maybe they're the Corn Cobs? Don't
laugh. Here in SD we have a team known as the kernels ;)
