Why doesn't Yale get more 'official' respect from the state?

I’m wondering when the celebratory parade will be held in Hartford for the Yale men’s hockey team for winning the NCAA Division 1 national championship. Or is such a festivity only reserved for state-sponsored schools? Give credit and recognition to those who also deserve it: Connecticut’s Yale University. And regarding the governor’s “bet” on the hockey game, both Pepe’s and Sally’s are located in New Haven. Quinnipiac University is located in Hamden, as is some of the finest pizza in the state. Perhaps the governor will consider Sergio’s on Whitney Avenue for his next palatable adventure.

While the Governor has been the one to announce celebratory parades in Hartford, the organization and cost have been borne by local business through the Hartford Business Improvement District. If Yale wants a parade, then someone needs to foot the bill and by experience it won't be the state..
