How about alpha order of countries? Robin Patterson 03:57, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Well, I edited the page and reordered the countries. Hope that's errr... nice. It's my first 'public' edit other than adding my name here and there on lists lol.

The alphabetization of schools within the United States isn't exactly so hot either. I'm assuming generally schools should be alphabetized with the first letter of the first word in their name, excepting schools starting with University of and the like, which should be alphabetized as if those words did not exist. Although this page isn't exactly consistent on that. Lots of University ofs are under U, but some are not, like say University of California.

Anyway, I'm going to re-alphabetize U.S. schools and add mine.

Yes indeed, alphabetizing such that leading University of is ignored makes this page consistent with the list of colleges and universities in the United States as well.

Does anybody mind that I grouped the US schools by each state? If so, feel free to re-vert it. RHolecko 13:08, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
