Are University of Oregon colors decorating the UW train station?

Sound Transit construction manager Mark Pickerill told us the color was chosen five years ago, before Oregon started using neon yellow in its uniforms.

When KIRO 7 asked why they hadn’t used purple and gold, he responded, “Well it would have been a lot here right in front of the stadium. We were trying to be neutral and we saw this as a neutral color.”

...Pickerill said changing it would cost at least a half-million dollars.
I guess SF fans will get a chuckle out of this after the BART color controversy.
 
I was wandering around on the campus at USC last year and happened upon a young lady twisting balloon animals. So I asked her to make me something. She offered a penguin. In baby blue and yellow. Which I quickly observed were UCLA's colors!

(I named him Kelvin. He was searching for absolute zero.)
