message: Who decided that collegiate a cappella started at Yale in 1909? How was this scientific number derived? I ask because Georgia Tech's Glee Club was started in 1906; we know because it was the first student organization at Georgia Tech, and its charter has never been suspended. Is there something about Yale's group that differentiates it somehow, or was that just the earliest known example? Aside from Georgia Tech's group, Glee Club lists at least three other groups that date back almost 50 years before that. Bigpeteb 17:19, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: Are there a capella groups in the US outside of colleges? If colleges are the main/only place where a capella is happening, it would good to mention that in the article. If not, how does college a capella relate to the a capella scene in the outside world? Thanks, FreplySpang (talk) 17:31, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

message: as @Quuxbazbarfoo said, creating a topic on the discussion page to change the thumbnail picture. aforementioned problems with the previous UConn picture still stand, namely that the picture does not properly convey the youthful energy commonly present in collegiate a cappella. the picture is not particularly clear (2048x1152, but unable to make out faces or facial expressions). proposal to replace the picture with this picture:
this maintains the high contrast you mentioned and is considerably clearer (5760x3840, with energetic facial expressions and gestures clearly visible in the expanded image and with the bodies of the group clearly visible in the thumbnail size) than the previous image. the inclusion of the audience in the lower third of the image provides a better sense of the atmosphere in which collegiate a cappella is performed. in addition, Amherst College has a unique claim to the landscape of college a cappella, dubbing itself "The Singing College" with a large number of a cappella groups per capita (six groups for 2,000 students). in fact, Amherst alumnus John Michael Higgins '85, the announcer in Pitch Perfect, was a member of an a cappella group in his time at the College. please let me know if I've adequately addressed your concerns.
