Manual/Craft Arts?
The School of Art and Design is part of Humanities, but there is also the Practical Arts and Sciences portal, which would seem appropriate for some of what comes under 'art and design'. I'm just wondering where the Wood Workshop should be in this hierarchy. Where would the Bauhaus fit? (Sam 02:16, 12 September 2006 (UTC))

Circular Reference

 * Portal
 * On the Main Page for Wikiversity, Fine Arts is a portal.


 * School
 * On this page, Art and Design is a school.

 * There can be a portal corresponding to any Wikiversity category. However, there is a short list of major portals. In my view, only portals that are on that short list should be on the main page. --JWSchmidt 04:24, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

What's the distinction between Social Sciences and Humanities? They seem to overlap significantly.--AdamG 04:15, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
 * The Wikipedia article on social sciences emphasizes the difference in methods of study, with the social sciences making use of the scientific method. Traditional academic disciplines are arbitrary divisions and Wikiversity participants should feel free to combine ideas in non-traditional ways. --JWSchmidt 12:17, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Late 2012 Updates
I edited the page to show the tree structure in its entirety. It allows an expanded view. The old edit was annoying without the ability generate from an updated perspective. Brett Johnston (talk) 11:45, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Delete school of Accountancy
Currently there is a School of Accountancy that has very little and useless content that links to the Topic of Accounting in the School of Business which has much more useful content. The School of Accountancy should just be deleted as it is redundant and confusing.

How do I go about making this happen? I am new here.

 * This page is built from that category you thought was useless. :-)  The way to remove an item in this case is to remove the page from that category.  The way to make it happen is to either post on the talk page, or if that doesn't get a response, visit the Colloquium.  -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 00:00, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
