Not a relevant sorting of business schools, as the Big Ten is a athletic conference, that doesn't organize primarily along athletic lines. Also see prev discussion Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/List of Atlantic Coast Conference business schools for the ACC, which resulted in a consensus decision to delete.

- Delete I don't see sufficient sources to support this list article. (And thanks for nominating this, Epluribusunumyall - it was on my to-do list but you got to it first.) ElKevbo (talk) 21:23, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete Per my vote on the ACC page – who a school's sports teams play is irrelevant to its business school (or medical or engineering school). Reywas92 22:22, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- I don't think that's a safe line of reasoning or one that aligns with Misplaced Pages policies and practices. On practical grounds, some sports conferences have described groups of institutions that are associated beyond athletics e.g., the original members of the Big Ten do have some strong academic and administrative ties although I am skeptical that those ties have remained strong and meaningful as the conference has grown beyond all reasonable size and geographic distribution. More importantly, we're not making judgments about how we think institutions should be organized but we're weighing the available evidence to see if reliable sources recognize this grouping and have written about it in substantive ways.

- The academic ties they do have are not specific to the business schools, and there's no evidence this is a notable grouping – if either were the case I'd consider that but since it's not my comment stands; it's because of this irrelevance that we do not find stronger ties or sourcing. An intercollegiate case competition isn't enough for that. Reywas92 15:07, 13 January 2025 (UTC)

- Delete - Not covered in any dept in reliable sources. One could think up all sorts of permutations for articles related to colleges and universities but need to have real backing in the sources. This one doesn't. Jjazz76 (talk) 07:33, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
- Delete The basis for this list seems invalid. Orientls (talk) 14:13, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
