[Tagging] amenity=faculty?

[Volker Schmidt]

Apart from technicalities, there is another problem. Universities in

departments, institutes, colleges. Except for campus-type universities they
are often distributed over an entire city.
I have not looked into this in detail, but this seems to me a strong case
for site relations.
