Since at least the 1990s, the identity-based Harvard student group was labeled with that ordering. Since the ordering of letters is, at best, arbitrary, I think no one decided it was worth changing, and became standard on campus for related topics.

It's incredibly distressing, because - my lab needs funding but look, realistically, I'll be okay - but the entire generation of people who were going to move into this research space are just completely orphaned. There's no way to start a lab on this now. Funders need to pivot back to funding.
