Not sure how much you care about technical accuracy, but the "New England Intercollegiate Fencing Conference" is a men's only conference. There's a sister conference, the "New England Women's Intercollegiate Fencing Association" that is for women's programs. They have identical membership, except that the NEWIFA includes the women's schools (Wellesley, Smith, Mount Holyoke), while the NEFIC does not (you have them listed as included).
They operate as a single organization, but are technically distinct.

I would recommend having a note to that effect. Maybe listing it under a single conference entry, but designating schools that are only in one conference via parenthetical note, asterisks, or other inline marker.
Updated MACFA schools to be current as of the 07-08 season.
It might be nice if we could get all schools listed the same way in all places. And perhaps a common sorting guideline.
Also, isn't there a Texas conference? I think we are missing that.
a) Teams who are members of S.W.I.F.A. shall include the following organizations: Baylor University, The University of Houston, The University of Texas, Texas A & M University, The University of Texas at San Antonio, Texas State University - San Marcos, Texas Tech University, Rice University, The University of North Texas, Gary Job Corps, and San Antonio College.
b) Additional member teams may be added to this list as provided for in these By-Laws, and the addition of a new member team by the existing members, is also an amendment to these By-Laws to include the new member team in the list of member teams in the preceding subsection.
That's 11 members, while the wiki lists 9. However, I'm not sure that's an error, as the other members are San Antonio College (has not participated to my knowledge in a long time) and Gary Job Corps, which is a legacy participant based on previous inclusion but is actually a job training program run by the Department of Labor.

Do you think they ought to be included?
Polite answer: What do the members of SIWFA think?
But my guess would be "No". If we want a historical membership page we can create a new article. Let's try to keep this page current.
