Why "an der Uni" and not "auf der Uni"? What is the reason? We use auf for horizontal surfaces. And auf for vertical ones. University is on the ground and not on the wall. Is really German a logical language?

First of all, grammar is not always logic, as it is a system which is constantly growing and evolving with times and the usage of speakers. 'an' respectively 'auf' der Uni are both correct, but used regionally different. For example: Ich studiere an/auf der Uni.

Yes it is logical! That rule exists for for objects liike tables, chairs, books, pictures etc etc (even people if the *exact* position they are in is critical (eg Ich stehe auf dem Tisch). However, when you talk about places - restaurants, universities, banks etc you need different pronouns. "an" is used with universities. The difference in german is actually the same as in English - I'm at the university, ich bin an der Uni are correct. I'm on the uni and Ich bin auf der Uni are not correct - and both mean that you are standing literally on top of the uni - which I presume is not what you mean!
