Style guide for alumni pages

The following is the formal WikiCU style guide for alumni biography pages listing Columbia degrees after alumni's names:

• The degrees will be listed directly following the name, with no intervening commas, parentheses, or birthdate information (the latter can be placed after the degree info; this is WikiCU, and the content of one's Columbia affiliation is more important than the span of one's mortal life). Only permutations of the alumni's names can come prior to degree affiliations.
• Both the degree title/school and the year of graduation will be wikilined. In cases of ambiguous wikilinking (such as the wikilink to CC), the link will be disambiguated.
• The year of graduation will only be abbreviated with an apostrophe if occurring after 1920.
• The degrees will appear thus:

Columbia College: CC

General Studies: GS

SEAS: SEAS

Barnard: B

GSAS MA: MA

GSAS PhD: PhD

Business School: MBA

Journalism School: J

Law School: Law

Med School: MD

Social Work: SW

GSAPP: Arch

SIPA: SIPA

...all remaining degrees have no uniform style as of yet.

• The appropriate categories will be added corresponding to degrees received
• Nongraduates will neither have degrees listed as above nor be assigned alumni categories. Instead, they will be assigned to the appropriate drop out category.
