What makes you say it’s disturbing? Having grown up near several Ag colleges, I never questioned it.

I cannot avoid reading it as silver (the chemical element), especially when the first letter is uppercase. I had a hard time understanding some sentences of the article due to that. My mind just refuses to parse "ag" as "agriculture". It's just that I'm not used to it.

EDIT: In your case, I cannot help to think about your colleges as very shiny, kitsch buildings.
