Per Jasper basically. In Canada, for example, "college" only refers to technical institutions or others which do not grant degrees.

College is not in general synonymous with university. This would be something that would have to be resolved on a case-by-case basis, although an alias should also suffice ("Harvard College" in this case).

There are times when a few keywords are often interchanged with each other in different languages and dialects.
It seems advantageous to somehow tell Wikidata Search that when someone types Harvard College to interchange and also look for Harvard University, and vice versa.
An interchange mapping table might suffice just for this use case, or something else, dunno...
How far in the future is this feature ? Roadblocks ?
