Re: More .edu abuse? WWW.COLLEGES.EDU
.EDU has little or no meaning...just look at MERIT.EDU as an example... They are essentially an ISP...backed by NSF welfare...

CALIFORNIA COLLEGES SHARE ONE-STOP WEB SITE
BCN17 -WWW.COLLEGES.EDU
By Bay City News Service The California State University system announced today that students can find information about every public, private and community college and university in the state on a new Web site. The California College Explorer Web site, which can be found at www.colleges.edu., features everything from links to campus home pages and admissions information to career assessment tests and scholarship searches. Spokesman Ken Swisher says the Web site is a joint initiative of the California Round Table, in collaboration with California State University, University of California, California Community Colleges, Association of Independent California Colleges and Universities, the California Department of Education and the California Postsecondary Commission. Swisher says www.colleges.edu is the latest in a series of statewide initiatives to promote access to higher education.

Give it a rest, Jim. Merit is a non-profit (intentionally!) ISP. Its NSF grants do not support its ISP function. Two of Merit's three currently active NSF awards support the development of open Internet tools; the third is a nearly-expired grant for a DS-3 research connection to the vBNS. -s (Yes, I supported Merit when I was at NSF.)
