My suggestion for the day (I really do want one of those cool crowns!):

The College Reviews forum is wonderful and unique; I am really enjoying it. I think, though, as it gets longer it might be more useful to have the posts listed in alphabetical order?  (Of course, threads would need to start with the school's name.) Then you could find the school of interest easily, and keep adding to an already established thread.

Is this even possible technically? And of course a discussion on whether this is even a good idea is definitely welcome!

Yep yep, good idea -- technically possible? Depends on the hosting software and Carolyn's discussions with tech support. :)

Click on the Topics header. The board will re-sort the message list alphabetically by post title--which usually starts with the name of the college.

Not perfect, but close.

You can click on the Started By header in the Introductions forum to sort intros by username, too.

...(sheepish grin) Chedva has already suggested starting the College Reviews with the name of the college.  But it was a good idea and I really think Chedva should get a crown...better late than never. ;)

I had trouble finding the terrific Beloit report, under "R".  But I see the suggestion is already out there.   Just a reminder then.

Thanks Rhonda. Unfortunately, this software has some limitations. :( I could set up separate forums for every school, but we probably don't have enough postings to make that feasible.
