The mission statement of Acawiki states: "AcaWiki enables graduate
students and researchers to share summaries of academic papers online"

Now, Joseph, would the students be summarizing higher level academic
papers or high-school level material?

If its not summarizing academic papers, then its clear that these
contributions are not for AcaWiki.
