Add schools column

[sylvia43]

Should we add a category for school? (also can an owner tag issues to make them distinct from pull requests?)

[sylvia43]

Is this a good idea? A bad idea? Someone say something?

I'm hesitant to add a school column because some of the members of HS Hackers don't fit in the traditional idea of "school" (myself included). A sizeable portion of members are also in college. Do you think a location field might fit the same use-case as school?

[sylvia43]

College could count. Maybe even employment? But most people are doing more than one... Location seems like a good solution though...

👎 what @zachlatta said

Location isn't good either. Some of us move around a lot (e.g. going between college/home)

[sylvia43]

I like location, because then you can see where people are at a glance. Even if they move around, you can see "oh that guy lives here too, we should meet up sometime."

Well he might not live there. He might live in Dallas for the summer but SF for the school year. A solution could be to make this a JSON document so we can have an array of locations and use something like Angular to display/filter this document on the gh-pages branch. But that may be overkill.
