[edit] St Brown's University

Presumably a hoax. Uppland 06:13, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete. If it's secretive, we can't verify it now, can we? Might exist in some third rate work of fiction, I suppose, but this appears to be the connected alleged band vanity BODMAS. That's the band that's alleged, not the vanity. Average Earthman 08:44, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
  • I thought that a rewrite might be in order. I looked around. But I have not been able to verify the existence of any institute of tertiary education, fictional or real, by this name. Brown University is not named after a saint, moreover. Delete. Uncle G 11:13, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, hoax/unverifiable. Dcarrano 16:31, July 22, 2005 (UTC)

  • Keep Located brief references in the following texts: The Making of the Modern University: Intellectual Transformation and the Marginalization of Morality by Julie A. Reuben (in my UoC Press edition it's page 174) also frequent nods to St. Brown's in The Idea of a University by John Henry Newman (when you consider the alleged Freemason connection these should become fairly obvious)User:Moi 04:13, 23 July 2005 (UTC) (This vote actually by 82.47.19.163 (talk ยท contribs))
    • A search of the Newman text on Amazon.com finds no such reference to this University. --Etacar11 17:05, 25 July 2005 (UTC)
    • And this IP vandalized two other pages after coming here. --Etacar11 00:18, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
