I like this as a proposal. I do not like "The Faculty of" and would much prefer nigh anything else for a word there. Perhaps getting creative with each section. I will post my ideas as to a replacement once I finish my coffee.

I think we should call it revolutionary University or University of the Revolution, then each category is "college of..." instead of "faculty of..."

Wouldn't agroscience fall under the category of 'Natural Sciences'? I would prefer to have the Colleges be as broad as possible to avoid lonely, subdivided content. I like them as is (and not just because our beloved Aniane is finally being honored appropriately).
