the.com/institute
A noun that lets any idea wear a blazer and demand funding.
means To formally establish or set something in place — a rule, a practice, a proceedings — or, as a noun, an organization built around a particular purpose or field.
from From Latin 'instituere' — 'to set up, establish' — built from 'in-' (toward) plus 'statuere' ('to set up, station'), itself from 'stare' ('to stand'). So at its root, an institute is just something made to stand, firmly and on purpose — the blazer came later.
