WikiProject Universities aims to improve the coverage of universities and colleges on Wikipedia. Our goals include: - Standardize the structure and content of all college and university articles
- Represent the interests of colleges and universities and ensure their articles' compliance with Wikipedia's five pillars
- Improve the coverage of university articles, propelling them to featured article status
- Serve as the central resource for all discussions and information related to colleges and universities
