I like the San Francisco State University...it has alot of editing templates, logos, typography and color palets to choose from. I also like the searching capabilities in the university of Georgia. US Davis is also a good one, it was some of the same things like The san francisco does.

I like the stylebook from the University of Georgia because you can choose whether you want to see the complete list or if you want to browse by category.

The University of Hawaii has an easy to use stylebook that is very fitting to the stuff a college would be writing about. It also has a blurb on simple ways to write well inside the stylebook.

Yes, we were suppose to have a discussion. However, it seems like we don't have much of a discussion going on here.
