Name
The English name of Högskolan Dalarna is Dalarna University, although Dalarna University College perhaps would be more approprtiate. Aaker 19:18, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

The name has not yet been decided by Högskolan Dalarna (the University) yet. However, Högskolan Dalarna (no translation) is the top alternative as the English name. Högskolan Dalarna should be refered to as the University Smastad 12:48, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Well, all I know is that their website is du.se there du stands for Dalarna University and that the professors working at Högskolan Dalarna refer to it as Dalarna University in English. Aaker 21:29, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Well, again. I work for Högskolan Dalarna and I know that Högskolan applied to the goverment to become a university but was rejected. To be honest, there is no policy for the name yet. I will get back once I know more. Smastad 16:34, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Is it really that difficult to understand the difference between a name and a classification? The name (in English) is Dalarna University. The English classification is "university college." If the school decides to use the word "university" in their name then that's their business. The government classification is another matter altogether. The name doesn't necessarily have to reflect the governments classification of the school. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.226.69.39 (talk) 07:00, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
