Talk:UC Berkeley School of Information

message: There has been some discussion already on what should be part of this page. 
I think that there is little reason to have a plain list of faculty without any associated information. If at all, the faculty list should be made into a category that can be linked from this page. 
Also I would think that the following content should be introduced on the page:
 - history, (as mentioned by Joebeone below)
 - profile of students from each batch. what are the backgrounds, avg, work experience etc
 - phd research topics
 - some overview information about the 'awesomeness' of master's final projects.
 - what jobs do people take up after an ischool degree
 - faculty names are not very usefull, unless we talk of what are the major research areas people are working on.
 -  unique/specialized offered at the iSchool. 
 - ischool traditions [ noise should be introduced to the world ]. i think wikipedia does not discourage aneqdotes if they help in elaborating on the subject of an article :)

message: It just changed from SIMS to SI, but what about when it was a library school and then decided not to seek further ALA accredidation.  It's that important?  And why did that happen anyway?
:Few of us know that history... I believe some of it is available on the website... feel free to add it. -- Joebeone (Talk) 21:36, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

message: I'm frustrated that the students section is limited to the PhD students only. Masters students make up a huge part of what SIMS is - at least as big a part as the PhD students. Let's not promote the useless academic hierarchy on Wikipedia, especially since we try not to do it in South Hall! -- Judd Antin
Judd, danah added the Phds.  Feel free to add a section for Master's students... that's the idea. It's not that we chose to exclude them... rather that a given author has only a little time and interest to contribute. Change it, Man! That's the wiki way! :) -- Joseph Lorenzo Hall 20:26, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
