I agree the various terms I've seen (faculty, department, school,
college, institute, program(me), division, educational unit) don't seem
to line up worldwide or even within some small regions.

A generic term, with the site-specific term listed as part of the name=*
tag, seems like a good solution. I'd probably be happier with department
or division as the generic term, but subdivision might work.

(In discussions like these I can't help thinking about the various
proposals for a unifying education=* tag, and how that might affect the
tagging of sort of hierarchy. The most recent one, currently "under
way", is

.)
