Expansion of this article

I can think of numerous ways people more knowledgeable than I could expand this article, so please have at it. Some suggestions for new stuff:

history, esp. founding; the Friends/Institute; new campus
description of relationship of NOCCA to New Orleans- and regional secondary school systems
list(s) of notable alumni, faculty
effects of Hurricane Katrina
images

Redlinks

There are a lot of red links in the article. I count 12 or 13 links to nonexistent articles about NOCCA faculty members—and that's just in music and theatre. With all due respect to these dedicated professionals, is it reasonable to expect that they are all notable and will have articles written about them? For that matter, is it necessary or appropriate to list faculty members? I shudder to think how much red we would see if faculty members in the other disciplines were listed. -- Muffuletta 05:25, 3 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
