College/university can be inclusive of those who have done / are doing both.
Someone who has attended, or is attending, college and university would have to answer no to “college or university”

I wouldn’t actually prefer that, for the record. Just trying to make a joke about making it worse. If only there were more alternatives to add slashes, it might have been a more obvious joke. 😅
