Content edit

The basis for this article seems insufficient for the article's current inclusion on Wikipedia. As stated in the introduction, the colleges included have been "selected," which, in this absence of objective defining aspects, allows for unacceptable levels of subjectivity or randomness in the article's entire content.

Mercury42, this isn't an article; it's a user page. You're correct that it would never be appropriate as an article because of the subjective selection of schools (among many other reasons). It's presented mostly just as a curiosity, a very rough data set, and perhaps as a source of motivation for anyone who wants to create notable biography pages for a particular school. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 02:17, 22 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
