Identifying Universities mentioned in Tweet Text

Question

I am looking for a means of identifying UK University names mentioned in Tweet text.

I have a list of full University names, but the issue is dealing with shortened versions such as "aber uni" (Aberystwyth Uni), "staffs uni" (Staffordshire University) or "portsmouth" (University of Portsmouth).

I have looked down the route of Apache Stanbol and OpenNLP to attempt Named Entity Recognition, and although these will match for the full names I cannot seem to find a means of training them to identify variations of the names (or indeed lowercase versions of the name which are not identified).
