Brown University is the premiere institution of lower learning in the NNY Sewers wherein the Sewer Mutants learn how to maintain the sewerage of New New York. It is probably what remains of a university of the same name founded in the 18th century.
The University is financed by the United Mutant Scholarship Fund, which in 3010 was supported by the Astor Endowment Fundraiser. Turanga Leela thought it was just a tax-deductible sewer-cleaning surface but, according to Mrs. Astor, Brown University is also about keeping "those filthy things" too busy to protest for equal rights. Despite its existence, however, the Mutants did revolt, and were officially pronounced free in September of 3010 (6ACV12).

Quotes
Leela: I guess you mean well. But isn't that university just a tax-deductible sewer-cleaning surface?
Mrs. Astor: Oh, my dear! That school is about much more than sewer pipes.
Leela: Really?
Mrs. Astor: It's also about keeping those filthy things busy.
