re: A New Name for the Forum

quote Praetorian_Lord
To get the ball rolling, here are the suggested names so far:

The Rogue Scholar
Rogue Scholars
Pursuit of Knowledge
Scientia (Latin for ‘Knowledge’)
Sapientia (Latin for ‘Wisdom’)
Insectatio Sapientae ( Latin for 'The Pursuit of Wisdom')
In the Pursuit of Knowledge
Knowledge Base
Institute for Higher Learning
The College Campus
The Lecture Room
The Lectern
The Palace of Athena
The Study Hall
The Lecture Hall
Those would all be really good titles for a general discussion, but besides the Pursuit of Knowlegde, all of those would come off as a bit pretentious for the name of the actual forum.

I like the current name, but I suppose too many people are just posting about school events rather than actual educational topics, so a change is needed. Academia is pretty good. I also wouldn't mind a combination of the two, such as Education and Academics.

Can I just point out that Learnin' is not actually a candidate.

I don't think that solves any problems, tbh.

As a result of this thread, I've narrowed the list down to a select few names, and I can take it from there. Cheers for the input guys, we'll see how it goes.

Academia sounds the best so far.
The Lecture Hall sounds good too, but that doesnt apply to high school students.

Good choice.

ps the subtitle of this thread is the most clever I've ever seen on Neoseeker.
