Feedback:
We use a colon to list names. For example, I have three brothers: Eslam, Braa, and Sohaeb.
We use a comma to separate items(nouns, adjectives, or phrases) in a list.
We use a proper noun with universities, schools, people,...-- that means we need to capitalize these nouns. Baskhair State University
