Errors and Updates

There should be some way of handling listings of faculty who die, or who leave for other positions (e.g.John Maeda, now president of RISD). Maybe set up separate tables for former and deceased faculty, similar to the Nobel laureate lists? Reify-tech (talk) 01:25, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Grammar

"Faculty" is singular. Thus a " List of Faculty" would consist of precisely one item.

Correct grammar would be something like: "List of Faculties" or "List of Faculty members".

Unfortunately, poor grammar is rife within Wikipedia, an inevitable consequence of no quality control over the literacy of its contributors and no grammatically competent editorial policy.
