I don't think the College Level Help board is neccesary.

Their is enough help in University, and I doubt they would find help here.

During the school year, we get plenty of college level questions here.

I taught university level physics for 4 years. Don't you worry, I can handle it.
 
Yes, but do you really think the people here are really QUALIFIED to teach/help College students including those of which could be in Graduate school?

Yes. There are people here with PhD's, and I am close to that level myself (I just have to finish my thesis). I could teach any core graduate physics course.
 
And sometimes it's easier to understand from a PhD student you don't see face to face than from a full-professor you only get to ask one question as he's very busy...
