That may be true.
   
  It may be depend on which software package works best for the college. Then 
it would
  depend upon which database that software package uses.

A good friend who has been running Datatel on Unidata for 20+ years (one of 
Datatel's oldest clients) recently hired a new CIO. His first comment? Get 
off that "Mom and Pop" database and move to oracle.

There's a lot of misunderstanding about MV databases but may people with the 
misunderstandings aren't willing to listen to rational discourse about the 
pros/cons.

If Unidata has served this (unnamed) college for 20+ years, surely it's a 
reasonable database considering the amount of growth any college has faced 
over some 2 decades.
