<p>Halflokum understood the point I was making.</p>
<p>Some people here seem to be saying “Well, a conservatory has A, B, C, and D, but a non-conservatory doesn’t have A, B, C, and D.”</p>
<p>I don’t believe it.</p>
<p>I think of the novel Nicholas Nickleby, where Nicholas gets a job in a school called “Dotheboys Hall”. When he shows up, he discovers it isn’t actually a hall! The headmaster, Wackford Squeers, insists there is no law (no “act of Parliament” as he says) that prohibits him from calling it a hall.</p>
<p>I think it would be naive to just assume that a program has A, B, C, and D just because it calls itself a conservatory, and that a program doesn’t have A, B, C, and D just because it doesn’t call itself a conservatory. You have to look at each program and see for yourself what it does or doesn’t have.</p>
