Michigan and Michigan state are both state schools. As are Iowa and Iowa State. Having "state" in the name is not necessary. Usually the schools that have the name of a state in their name are state schools (Iowa, Iowa State, Northern Iowa). I think it's just a differentiator between state universities.
