This template takes up a lot of space. Could you please pipe the names of the institutions as to omit the word College/University. You could look at any number of other similar templates as an example. Thanks, -MrFizyx 02:33, 12 April 2007 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Great idea. I went ahead and shortened most of the names - though I had to leave "college" or "university" in some places when schools shared the same name or when removing them left the identity of the college a mystery. Thanks for the feedback. -Classicfilms 06:14, 12 April 2007 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thanks, thats much better. -MrFizyx 14:50, 12 April 2007 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I changed Connecticut College's listing to its full name. The state's public university, the University of Connecticut, uses the name "Connecticut" for sports teams. Local Connecticut residents would always think "Connecticut" alone means UConn. So I made this change to avoid confusion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.119.72.119 (talk) 03:44, 31 March 2008 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I have added colors -- they are not "arbitrarity decorative" but are the colors used at http://www.collegenews.org/theannapolisgroup.xml. --King of the Arverni (talk) 22:51, 13 July 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]
