Mike,
Many things in the world of academia are that way. When you live in that
'reality', you have to go by the emperor's rules. We can notice that there
are no clothes, but unless we want to lose our jobs, we can't say anything
about it. Even if it is pointed out that it makes no difference *where*
this list is housed, the perception by many administrators would be changed
if it were in a school list.
Of course, many would disagree, and many more probably wouldn't care. C'est
la vie.
