Public bug reported:

As described in documentation institution names should be one word without numbers and special signs. 
Is there a technical reason that numbers are not allowed?
Otherwise I would suggest to allow numbers in instution names.  

There are a lot of departments that can naturally be an institution.
Their names often have numbers. German vocational schools often describe
the study years by numbers and we also have school that have numbers in
their name (i.e. Berufliche Schule 3).
