Teach in a university?

Hi,
Can I use 'in' in the sentences?
"The professor teaches in/at xxx university."

What's the difference between in and at if 'in' is OK here?

Thanks.

Hi, 'At' is usually preferred when the activity inside the building is referred to. 'In' is used when we think of the building itself, not the activity. - DJB -
