A lot of people wonder why a university in Ohio is called Miami University. Here’s why: Founded in 1809 in Oxford, Ohio, Miami’s name reflects the history of the Native American tribe that once inhabited the Miami Valley region of Ohio. Miami maintains strong ties with the Miami Tribe, now located in Oklahoma.
