It is quite unfair in that most of the colleges at UC are very reputable on
a national level.  Yet our so called "reputation" is based on the standards
of University College, which if I'm not mistaken, is being phased out.

Tom,

Can you please back this statement up?  Do you know what the mission of
University College is/was or where exactly the reputation is based upon it
nationally?

I am really interested in your source.  I have dealt with misinformation
such as yours (even from within the some in the administration itself!) for
my 8 years in University College and have dealt with administrators who
think the best way to deal with underprepared students is to give them some
remedial math, English and reading and ship them on with no regard for why
or how they are underprepared.  I've dealt with the colleges that have a
stellar reputation (or not in some cases) who claim to have no underprepared
students and are thus under-serving significant portions of their clientele.

Anyway, I can go on, but I prefer to shut up now.  I am just interested on
how you came about this reputation info.  Thanks!
