Citing or attributing to Extension

Use "University of Minnesota Extension" on first reference, Extension thereafter. Use "U of M Extension" if space is limited, such as in the case of headlines or broadcast graphics. The use of "extension" alone and in lowercase does not distinguish among the extension systems of each U.S. state and territory's land-grant university.
