Re: location of details link

So taking Birkir's advice to put the most unique identifying column on the left, I believe that would be the Articulation column. There is nothing to keep ups from putting the Details link in the second column I suppose. The articulation name could be used in an aria-describedby attribute on the Details link, however there would likely be duplicates as there are articulations with the same name (we have 34 colleges in our system). I'm not sure how we could avoid non-distinguishable links altogether.

I will discuss with my workgroup whether it would be possible to reduce the number of columns and put that data in the details instead.
