From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hello to all. I'm a graduate student in library and information science, and I'm doing my small part to help Wikipedia grow even stronger, more accurate, and more useful than it already is! I primarily contribute on articles related to higher education in the United States--and specifically articles about individual colleges and universities.

I've only been editing articles for a few months, so remember that I'm still learning the system! Be kind.
