Initial page creation notes

edit

The Fraternity and Sorority Project is discussing how to best utilize this article or multiple articles to capture and list a number of small and often dormant schools that formed in the late 19th Century or early 20th Century. These were either coordinate campuses, aligned to a specific Ivy League school, or similar. Part of this discussion hinges on how to capture and list all the many private business schools or finishing schools that developed during this time. Many of these have closed, some merged, while some became Junior Colleges and a few became full four-year schools. Participants will add references and links, and where warranted, will create pages for schools that should have them. Jax MN (talk) 01:31, 1 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

I found this helpful. Assuming this is a RS for this context? What are the Ivy League equivalents to the Seven Sister schools? What I haven't resolved is where to cut off the list. Clearly, there was a casual/social relationship (in the post by several graduates of the Seven Sisters they call it "informal") between Smith and Yale, and Skidmore and Union, for example. These informal relationships between the schools appear to be nowhere near as important following WWII, but were historically notable. Jax MN (talk) 19:46, 1 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
