renaming a department



Can you provide examples of names with tripple identity? It may be
useful to us if the last option (see below) prevails.

Ludwik Kowalski ! I hope this will be the
Department of Mathematics and Physics ! name of my department
Montclair State University, N.J. ! when the Computer Science
! Deptartment is formed.
! We used to be the Dep. of Physics-Geoscience (and we liked it this
! way) but the administration decided to merge the geoscience with
! the environment and we became part of the "Mathematics and Computer
! Science". The computer science people were fighting for independence
! and they were able to prevail. The vote for the new name took place
! yesterday but I do not know what the outcome was. Two other options
! were "mathematics" or "mathematics and statiscics". Tripple identity
! was acceptable to administration.
