My teacher said Mary had a great faculty for gathering information. but i think it's okay to use of like "she has a faculty of gathering information" Shall i use "for", or both "for" and "of" are okay. And i wanna know why. Thanks!!!!!
When it means "aptitude" "faculty for" sounds correct to me. We talk of "faculty of xyz" when we are talking about departments of a university or similar. For example "he is head of the faculty of Oriental Studies".
