Name Those Colleges!
When Yale said last fall that it may build two new undergraduate residential colleges, one of the first questions we asked was: "What will you name them?"

Yale hasn't decided whether to build the colleges yet, much less what to name them. But we made some suggestions and asked readers to send us their own ideas.
