Here are a few suggestions to try and work into this page.

  • Qualification Requirements should probably be "Application Qualification Requirements"
  • I like the general information section on pages that has a little information about the place. That is helpful for students but also spouses.
  • Several of these look like "link" sections. Should we combine several categories into a general link section? For example, faculty information, School website, Doctoral Program, Current Student information, research ranking will probably just link to our other web page? I don't want the section to be a link fest as no one will read it, but thoughts on whether this is a good/bad idea? Daw44 14:49, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
