"Sermo stercoralis" is very clever, but there has GOT to be a classical idiom for this. --Iustinus 08:33, 13 Decembris 2006 (UTC)

Lehigh doesnt have a classics department proper, but i sent an email to someone who teaches latin and history there. He refered me to a clerk in the library who did some research and says that even as far back as the late 1800s when they started the college, there was never an attested latin name for the university. How can/should I cite this?--Ioshus (disp) 18:06, 7 Februarii 2007 (UTC)
- First of all, you're doing numquam non again, and I am quite sure you are thinking of Greek.
- Second of all, my opinion on giving the names of universities in Latin is this:
- If the University is named after a person (especially if the full name is given), use Universitas + name in the genitive.
- In most other cases, use Universitas + Name-ensis.
- This somewhat violates the principles of VP:TNP, but it does seem to me that when writers refer to universities in Latin, they do Latinize the name even if one isn't attested. Perhaps there should be a footnote to indicate that the name is made up though.
- As for technicalities of how to cite this, which is, I think, your real question, I don't know.

I just want to say that this is awesome. Thank you, whoever made it! I would say that in Latin, but all I remember is "Agricola portat aquam ad castra" and i isti it imus istis erunt. --164.82.144.3 19:41, 16 Martii 2007 (UTC) (Awiseman on English Wikipedia)
