[edit]"This article is very inaccurate - here it sounds like some sort of religious college, but the unIversity has a standard range of science and other departments. See http://www.emundusgreenit.uvigo.es/en/omar-al-mukhtar-university"
-- probably actually useful. Article does need work. Massaging in some punctuation to make it a little more comprehensible. Elinruby (talk) 10:36, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
